It will progress that way...it is just a matter of time. Past history shows you that. 100 years ago there would be very few of me, now there are many more. Look at the difference between how we treat dogs now and how we did 50 years ago. Look at how people are caring about animals enough to donate to SPCAs, hardly ever happened back when. Look at the swing to vegetarinism...becoming much more popular. Look at the animal abuse laws now....and a 100 years ago. The ones in Canada are just being updated now. Less people are hunting now then 100 years ago.
Not all trends continue indefinitely.

The population of humans is large enough to cause problems to all other creatures.
That still doesn't fit the definition of overpopulation.

Reasons to hunt: Its fun murdering innocent animals
It's not murder. If you're going to use emotional language, you should at least make sure you're correct.

and you get some meat you never needed. It also keeps the popualtions down of deer...yeah right. Better reasons?
Overpopulation is worse overall for a species than the death of a few members.

Its been said that men that hunt are compensating for something else ....
Only by skinny, tofu-eating hippies who cry whenever a tree gets cut down. Absurd prejudices are fun.
