You know, I'd love a little passenger pigeon pie... What's one more going to hurt?

Look, I din't say they should be hunted to extinction. People poach them already. They arn't going to poach more if its legal. If it's legal, and we (and I do not mean us, or the US) place restrictions on it, I don't see the overall problem.
I realize I can't compare them directly to cows, but hey... Food is food. I hunt deer, and eat those... Does that make me a morally wrong person? No. Granted deer can now be compared to pests, they produce so rapidly, but still. I don't feel it unjustified to eat something else, regardless of what it is.
Keep in mind that in the middle east you could be shot for eating a cow... At least whales aren't religiously sacred!
And btw
Code:
The more I think about this...
Why not:
Elephant
Lion
Gorilla
Leopard
Giant Panda
It's just meat... let's eat!!!
If you offered me each and every one of those cooked on a plater, I would try every single one of them. If they tasted good, I'd ask for more, if not I wouldn't.
Of course, BigBen is right...
Out of context, but... If you want to help all those endagered species, the best idea would be eliminating humans. We kill more shit through building cities than we do through hunting.
