Comment PETA is anti-hunting which = anti-animal (Score 1) 370
The vast majority of the money used for land management comes from hunting and fishing license sales, and the same people buying those licenses make up a bulk of membership in the non-profits that actually care about animals (World Wildlife Federation, Trout Unlimited etc). Additionally, many hunters manage their own private land to naturally support healthy animal populations (this is how it's done where I hunt).
PETA has never done anything to help any animal in anything but a crazy stupid way to get attention and get more members to get more money. As a non-profit their administrative costs are astronomical, meaning the people in charge get paid A LOT. And by opposing hunting, and opposing everything else that they oppose, and basically through every action they take, PETA is the most anti-animal, anti-conservation group that exists.
I've seen piles of deer congregated to die of starvation and mange, smelled it and heard the disturbing noises they make when it happens. The most generous thing one could say about PETA is that they are pro this, and the truth is that they are far worse than that. Anyone that cares about animals should oppose PETA more than any other group.
I would guess that, as a comment above mentioned, PETA is over-charging their members for cheap drones because, as usual, PETA exists to extract money from their membership.
