Shooting predators is just one form of hunting.

Generally, I've noticed that folks like to eat. Food for the table doesn't magically appear in cans, nor from the meat department at the local Hoggly-Woggly or A&Poo Feed Store.

Feral hogs do great damage to crops. Predators do great damage to livestock.

I ran across an article in this month's "Texas Wildlife" speaking of the disconnect in modern society between rural folks and city folks. Since only some 2% of the workforce is on-farm/ranch, the disconnect is understandable as to why it exists. Sad, though.
