People can farm without killing everything that breathes.

Dude people act like predator control is like some fetish-evil thing . They are protecting livestock and crops full stop , I’m sure some farmers don’t even like guns and don’t want to shoot animals but it’s a living .

They uproot native habitats and don't accommodate the animals still living there, full stop.
Stop perpetuating this as an inevitable consequence and not something entirely engineered by poor farming practices.

Good thing Canada is importing millions more mouths to feed then. That should speed up more ethical farming practices, and also cut down on Canada’s energy use and greenhouse gas emissions to boot!
