Killing for sport is reprehensible. (Hunting for food is not.)
Killing for sport, having made yourself immune from danger, makes the word “sport” generous and unjustified.
Killing elephants for sport—who love, grieve, teach their young—is beyond the pale.

True. My standards for what should not be hunted for food are fairly clear (although the boundaries can be discussed): Long-lived, socially-complex animals that live in multi-generational groups and pass information on not just within their lineages but between--not food.
