For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I listened to someone involved in management of grouse moors pontificating about 'managing the countryside' on TV yesterday.
I could respect the shooting and hunting fraternity far more if they dropped the pretence of 'managing' anything, and simply admitted that the reason why they shoot birds out of the sky or chase foxes so their dogs can tear them to pieces has far less to do with 'managing' an environment, and far more to do with the pleasure of doing it.
This worthy saying "I shoot birds because I enjoy shooting birds …" would not be acceptable, but at least it would be honest.

I suppose if people enjoy eating Grouse they would prefer them hooked through their legs, hung up on a rack and have their throats cut so they slowly bleed to death.They don't feel trauma or pain cos a nice man intones a prayer in foreign to ease their suffering. I would certainly have a grouse about that.
I do shoot, but targets not living creatures. It would not stop me eating game of any description if it was shot by someone else who owned a shotgun.
