I haven't watched many of his shows over the years so I don't really know if he is more of a trophy hunter or is satisfied with just about any animal. Maybe he is similar to Fred Eichler who flat out tells you it isn't the size of the animal that counts to him, it's the hunt. Not sure if Babe still does his cooking section on his show but maybe he needed venison for it or perhaps he donates to a hunter's for the hungry type of program.
