anastasia: Even tho I don't eat meat, I understand that for some people hunting serves a purpose. There are people in my own community who hunt for a less expensive way to feed their families, other people that I know hunt for sport, but donate the meat from an animal to food service organizations, and I know that over-population of deer (for example) can devastate a harvest for some farmers. I think if an over-population of wolves is endangering someone's means of making a living, then sadly there may be a need to thin them out, but, as for an "aerial hunt", where is the sport (?) in that? I don't see animals as being equal to humans, but I do think that ALL animals have the right to be treated humanely
