The classic example of this is the big game hunting ranches in Texas.
They are the only ones who are preserving species that are rapidly
going extinct in the wild. It is a managed population. PETA says they
would rather have them extinct than have someone shoot one
occasionally.

I guess they never saw a lion take down a grazing animal. If so they
would never say hunting was cruel.

Is there something wrong with preserving habitat for the sake of
preserving habitat, without having the slaughter of animals as a motivator?

John is creating habitat hitting a little white ball, you deride that
too.
The problem is land costs money and the tree huggers always what to
"save" someone else's land. There is no Sierra Club or PETA game
preserve. That is why I am proud of SW Florida for actually voting to
buy conservation land. It is pretty rare.

Managed population is a euphemistic way of saying canned hunt.

OK. so?

Lions take down grazing animals to eat and survive, not for sport. I was
fairly neutral on "hunting" until a decade or so ago, when I saw a TV
video of a "brave hunter" shooting and killing some distance away a
sheep with fancy horns. What a brave man.

So what. There is still a breeding population.

If you have followed Harry's modus operandi over the years, then you
will have noticed that he seeks out those who seem to have a soft spot
somewhere in their psychological make up or back ground. He will
then chip away at that spot trying to force some sort of emotional
blow up. This is a form of bullying of course which Harry seems to
find amusing for some reason. It would be all too easy to compile a
list of some of his past victims that he has driven from this group.
Mr Hypocrite himself, drooling over with false concern for the down
trodden of the world, getting his jollies by trying to push people
over the edge. It's pretty sick behavior and typical for a sociopath.
When no one seems to be rising to the bait, Harry will invent a new
sock puppet or invite a few "friends" over from some other group. The
antidote for all this is to just cut him off and ignore the sock
puppets when they becme known.
