My last point I would like to say, is that criticizing humans as a whole is also terrible. I really don't like when people decide that because of a few people who make wrong choices, the entire race should be classified as evil, cruel, despicable, etc. There are also rapists, serial killers, murderers, prostitutes, dictators, etc. We do not blame their actions on the whole of the race, and you shouldn't when you are speaking about hunting either. I suppose people really do LOVE to seperate humans from the ecosystem of the world...and that cannot stand. We ARE animals, and part of the world environment just like lions, bears, mice, and bacteria. We are obviously different, and there is a gap, but because we use this world in a variety of ways, (and make mistakes) we shouldn't have every HUMAN criticized just for being human. You don't lose faith in humanity, you lose it in individuals. There are many people (including many on this forum) who are against trophy hunting, and for things that benefit animals. I would not, in any way say that the whole of humanity is evil, or headed downhill...and if we realize that we are making mistakes..we will correct them, for our own sake. That sounds selfish, but it is what motivates all animals as well.
