Unless to control overpopulation of a species, hunting in my view is entirely unnecessary, unjustified and unethical.

Instead of promoting killing animals, how about the government focusing on promoting biodiversity and eco tourism? I'm sure more people/tourists would be interested in benefiting from the natural beauty of the region and seeing animals, rather than come here to hunt. But sadly, the gun/hunting lobby is incredibly vocal and somehow managed to create this notion that killing animals is a sport and it's a right. It only promotes violence and lack of respect for the life of animals. In this day and age with the abundance of farm produced meat, there's absolutely no need to kill the few animals left in the wild. The culture of hunting as a sport needs to change and it needs to be spearheaded by the government.
