Just a suggestion? Park your sarcasm. It detracts - and significantly - from the argument you seem to be attempting to formulate.

I have relatives in New Jersey. They want a bear season reestablished. They've had bears on their deck trying to get into the house. Their neighbors, ALL OF THEM NON-HUNTERS, are now all of the same mind-set. For that matter, most of their township is tired of being saddled with the state's bear problem. Bears were "good", until they saw what bears really are, not what they've seen in Disney movies. That's pretty consistent with the dynamic now at work in South Dakota with the cats.

Nonetheless, you seem to have bought into the very arguments that the environmentalists use to recruit the non-hunting public. Particularly dangerous, your apparent assumption or leap in logic that all non-hunters are environmentalists. So, it probably seems to you that the public, by-and-large, are against hunting. I hate to say it, but by your assertion, the environmentalists have already won.
