Its wrong because we are the only species that can reason it out and realize we don't need to hunt to live. Cougars and wolves can't.
So somehow it's more "moral" to buy meat than to take it ourselves? That's just warped in itself. My ability to reason tells me that it's more natural for me to eat an animal I've killed than to go buy parts of one kille by someone else. Neither are wrong... just one is more natural.

I wonder if any species of animal are as self loathing as many humans?

Most hunters go for the biggest bucks with the nicest antlers, its well known.
This is just a stereotype. I prefer smaller bucks myself. The meat is much more tender and tasty. The only hunters I know who would pass up a 4 or 6 pnt buck are trophy hunters... which not all of us are.

The natural predators will keep the deer in check, aslong as we don't keep killing the predators and ruining their habitat. It may not be instant, but it will eventually work, if people are patient.
Man is a natural predator to deer.
