..their a crop, like corn/soy beans and the Hunters are paying a high price for the hunt, thereby providing a range for other animal species....besides the animals don't know it.

My neighbors raise pheasants in a large netted enclosure and then release them in a field the day of the hunt. These birds are fairly tame and often don't bolt until the hunters are right on top of them, making for a rather easy shot. In a way, it's not any different from raising a chicken to chop off its neck prior to dinner, but I don't consider the hunting involved very sporting.
