Tell me, what happens if we rip away hunting when hunting protects more wildlife land in Africa than national parks?

Ian says, regarding " Veterinarians Train Sealers to Kill Humanely, " that "veterinarians very often do not care about animals but rather are more like auto mechanics who are providing a service for humans (that service may be to save an animal or kill an animal, etc)."

The animal rights movement is (rightly) closely associated with protesting things like factory farming, dogfighting, etc…basically, the mistreatment of animals.

In the past I have attributed some of this conflict to differences between the conservation mindset and that of animal rights/animal welfare.
