I believe that sport hunting is barbaric and cruel to prey. But as a hobby because you love your falcon and train it, if the prey is consumed or used, or not wanted such as rats or snakes, then I might participate. Yet, probably my POV is let the falcon live wild and free.

San, Alas, when they are wild and free, farmers and gamekeepers shoot or poison them ( illegally) to stop them possibly taking lambs or game birds. Very hard to get a conviction.
