A lot of the upper classes in Britain have spent centuries fox hunting, just for sport, and were still doing so up until very recently when it was finally banned.

Hence why we left your empire over 200 years ago. j/k
That’s a British problem, not here in America. In America, there’s something called the Sportsman’s Code of Ethics, which enshrines the rules like fair chase and everything else that makes hunting fair. |

Dude, that is bs! (bull spit. lol) there are a ton of hunters who shoot 40 or more deer a season, illegally. and they’ll shoot them over salt-blocks for crying out loud. however, me, my dad, and my friends have never done anything like this. and there are a TON of very respectable hunters who follow the regulations, eat what they kill, or donate the meat to organizations who give it to the hungry.
