One thing I did find odd in the op is the hunting season thing you lot have there, we don't really have those tie-ups.
It's no different than hunting an animal at night or with an illegal weapon, its poaching. Americans have never been known for going small or being timid. We hunted a lot of a game near to extinction. That's why market hunting is illegal, And why we have Hunting seasons and bag limits. This is to maintain herd sizes so that there will be hunting down the road.
