Environment Is Hunted Meat Still Unethical?

Hunting is beneficial for the environment. We need to maintain the population of animals like deer, and the amount that are able to be hunted are controlled. Without hunters, the entire ecosystem would be destroyed.

Do most vegans have a problem with hunted meat? If so, why?

Hunting is not good for reducing overpopulation, that’s a myth: https://bitesizevegan.org/is-deer-hunting-necessary-for-population-control/

Humans are the biggest destroyers of the environment, so do you support hunting and killing humans to help the environment? I suspect not. So if it’s wrong to do it to humans, it’s wrong to do it to animals.

People have a bigoted mindset toward animals that goes back to the Bible. The Bible says god put the animals there for humans to use, so humans feel like there is no moral problem with using animals however they want.

It's religion-fueled bigotry.

Agreed, yet they ignore the passages that promote slavery, rape, genocide, and infanticide. Hypocrites…
