Does Hunting help or Hurt the
Environment? – Bill Davis
Rating: **
This article
by Bill Davis expresses the controversy, if hunting helps or hurts the
environment. Is it just the way of life or is it simply cruel pleasure?
This story talks
about one of the controversial issues that we have in today’s reality. Does
hunting help or hurt the environment? This subject can be argued both ways. Some
people might say that it’s just the way of life. That every animal species
including human were once either preys or predators in evolution history.
Hunting could also be effectively used to slow down the overpopulation rates of
some out growing specimens, but many environmental advocate can argue that those
targeted species can result into a loss of biological diversity and ecological
balance.
This article
really helps us think through how human pleasure now days, not only have an influence
on ourselves, but can cause huge impacts of the environment. This story definitely
got me thinking of all the pleasure that us humans take from the environment. How
sometimes we are so blinder by our wants and forget about our surrounding and
the things we affect.
I would
recommend this article if you are one who is an environmentalist and who likes controversial
topics issues.
Davis, Bill.
