Animals are hunted so that populations are kept down. In the case of deer for example. If deer are not hunted then they will over populate and will devour their food supply. Many people believe that hunting is bad because it hurts the animals. If done properly, when shot the animal will die quickly. If deer were not hunted then they would die from starvation and drive other species to extinction.
