All Hunters Love to Hunt..

... whether animal or human. Carel gets philosophical with a young animal rights activist over predatory biophilia:

"In essence, Tim and his hunter target audience are both motivated by the same animal drive: an innate love and fascination with other animals, that thing that Edward O. Wilson called biophilia, a trait that's strongest in the predators: the sated leopard that watches each gazelle with keen interest, the wolves that slaughter the silly contents of a sheep corral and leave them for the magpies, and the well-fed suburbanite, an SUV hauling his camo-clad ass up the mountainside."

Nice Aplomado too. Sure wish I could afford a Carel artwork!
