I have no problem with pest destruction whatsoever. It's not hunting, it's a vital task as these ferals are decimating Australia's indigenous species.
I also have no issues with hnters that take an animal for food.
I DO have significant issues with people that hunt purely for "fun". It's unnecessary and abhorrent to me. I cannot stand to look at those hunting magazines in the newsagent showing some nimrod smiling on the cover with his big bang death stick and a lion next to him. Makes me ill to my stomach, and these people need psychiatric evaluation!
If the National Parks service is smart enough, they will CLOSE the parks on the hunting days to the public, and sign it as such. The hunters should also be properly licensed for feral destruction, be appropriately trained, and monitored.
