Those peoples, where it is part of their culture to hunt to feed themselves and also use the rest of the animal for making clothing, tools etc instead of wasting it are poles apart from recreational hunters. The Laps are a prime example - they travel with the reindeer herds and only take enough of the animals they need to live.
What about the middle man Judd?
I personally don't shoot or fish, but I have many friends who do, but also only shoot or catch what they will eat or know of someone who will eat it - me for example
They have no need to shoot or fish to feed themselves, theres a Tesco in town after all, but they enjoy the sport of it
One of the most popular charity nights at my local is Game Night, the gun clubs supply the catch and tickets sell very fast
