The definition of 'Hunting Ethics' has to do with the following of statutes, regulations & practicing Fair Chase guidelines. So with that said, I believe this is a debate of 'Personal Ethics'. In which I believe has nothing to do with hunting animals for food.
thats what distinguishes us from "animals"
