10,000 Birds

AUGUST 12, 2015

Tell me, what happens if we rip away hunting when hunting protects more wildlife land in Africa than national parks? Conservation is concerned about protecting populations, species, habitats, ecosystems. And culls of Nyala have been proposed. This is of course an anathema for many in the animal rights camp. I mean it.

Fortunately, Singapore is not Florida, where Mr. DeSantis would probably have the two birds described in a paper culled (though the paper talks about “aberrant” behavior, which is a phrase Mr. DeSantis would probably feel comfortable with).

Animal Ethics

DECEMBER 23, 2006

Of course, when hamburgers aren't at stake, most of us think that it would be morally wrong to kill an animal for no good reason. So, we are given the "cull the herd for its own good" defense, or the "cull the herd to prevent automobile accidents" defense, or the "I hunt to put food on my family's table" defense.
