The joy isn’t from causing death. Thinking that way is very narrow minded.
The joy comes from all the work and effort involved in really putting together a successful hunt. Sometimes it is anticlimactic which also leads to people turning to taxidermy, it’s a way to honor and respect the life you took.
To me someone going to a grocery store, buying and eating a chicken that was penned up in its own feces for several months is ALOT worse than killing a free ranging animal that lived 110% wide damn open and free for all its days of life.
I’d rather be the wild deer that had a great life until it was out smarted and killed than the cow that was penned up until it had a bolt go through its head one random day.
Then it isn't the joy of killing, it's the joy of hunting. They are different.
