Sure it is. An eagle hunts its prey exactly the same way. This is just a new dimension for people wherein one can learn to hunt like a wolf or raptor.
You really think shooting an animal from a helo is the same as hunting like a raptor? They don’t use machines, pilots, radios and firearms, do they? They only get to use their bodies. I have nothing against this, except calling it a hunt. It should be called a culling.
“Is it really a hunt, when you do it from a helo?”
It’s crop dusting for vermin with lead.
