Wrong, does NOT mean breeding ...
From wildlife management site —
‘’To the conservation “manager”, “harvesting” or “wildlife management” means to kill an animal so as to control a population or an ecosystem. “Management” or “harvesting” are politically correct words that allow the speaker to avoid using the word “kill” when he or she is talking about culling a group of animals or birds.’’
“Wrong, does NOT mean breeding”
I didn’t say it meant breeding.
Your definition is from a government site.
A misuse of the term as euphemism or jargon.
See the inclusion of literally as not meaning literally being included in dictionaries.
