Hunting is part of life..yes.  But it's an almost sacred thing.  What this asshole did wasn't hunting.  He's the same kinda dipshit redneck who shoots up road signs, smashes mailboxes in the country, spraypaints 'bubba was here' on a canyon wall, and dumps his garbage off the bridge into the creek.
There's no excuse for cruelty to animals just for the power hard-on.  In fact it's the first thing they look for in the psychographic profiles of serial killers and psychopaths.
