My opinion has always been that it is fine to kill animals if you have a good reason. Good reasons for me include using the animal for food\materials, protecting people\property, and as a part of wildlife management. Killing just for the sake of killing is abhorent and humans should be above that.
I don't believe animals have souls, so I have no problem with them being killed in a manner that isn't specifically cruel and tortured. Chickens beheaded? I don't care... it's not something like cutting it's legs off and just letting it bleed to death. That would be wrong.
