What is the definition of ethical? Can killing something that doesn't want to die be considered ethical? Does "but they're yummy" work as a valid excuse to violating the definition of "ethical"?
For example humanity has decimated predators and now needs to hunt just for population control. I consider every kill to protect the environment and keep populations stable 100% ethical.
That aside: Everything dies and if it's not by getting mauled that's a plus already. For me it depends on what the tradeoff for that is to be considered ethical.
