The ethics of killing to protecting the environment

Re: The ethics of killing to protecting the environment

Why can't they just make it punishable with jail time, fines, etc instead of killing them? It should be against the law, but anytime people are shot instead of prosecuted it's not right.

As far as Brazil being one of the poorest countries in the world with nothing to do but illegal mining - that's ridiculous. Their GNP per capita is 25% higher than that of Iran, double China's and 5 times higher than Pakistan's.

No one is suggesting there is nothing to but football and illegal mining to do there.
