Hunting them and shooting them killing them quickly then consuming their meat is still therefore ethical maybe? The animal will feel less pain in its lifetime if shot to death than if it died naturally in the wild.
Correct?
That's not how ethics ever work though. All round mercy killings to fight against suffering, that's a Hollywood supervillain's notion of morality.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
