As always, it's a matter of education. People think they are protecting their interests but they really just need to learn about the species they are dealing with. I do understand it from the farmer's perspective as well. I stayed on a farm once where the owners lambs were being decimated by jackals at a rate of one a day, which is financially unsustainable, but even in such cases there are better methods than killing the animals which can be employed.

Thanks for reading :)
