Damien is in my view right. And the hunters can be trained or even supervised. Why not give them something they can boast about instead of seeing them as murderers. Give a point to their shooter skills and help the environment at the same time. Can't be worse than trying to cull goats from helicopters.

I totally agree. And if anyone disagrees, then they are probably unaware that national parks are paying a great deal of money hiring professional hunters to do this job. I believe that this change is coming from strong lobbying from gun clubs asking why their local members couldn't go and do that job for them.

I am surprised over and over again at how people with a real conviction to do something good are supressed by others.
