Hmm, how many killer bee hunts have you hear of recently?  As for the
other animals, they serve a vital ecological (and therefore economic)
purpose.  Heck, this would be a challenge.  Those that aren't content
merely to deer, ducks, and pigeon, and are frustrated they don't have
the ability to hunt cougars, can go after these killer bees, prove
their dominance over nature, impress the chicks, and provide a
valuable service (of course, they'd probably have a few millers and
end up taking out European honeybees instead).

The right to choose to hunt was never taken away.  Just what can
be hunted.  If they want more challenge, or even danger, it's all
right there.  Their right to choose was never compromised anymore
than any other law (such as abridging their right to choose to
drive across their neighbor's lawn, etc).
