I understand the point of a hunter's skill, and the ability thereof to take an animal down quickly. On the flipside, I think there's a major 'quality of life' issue, as it were. A wild animal can, for it's entirely life, do what an animal does. Farmed animals tend to be subject to pretty abyssmal conditions, with the swiftness of death being but one concern piled up on top of many. Standards in the EU may well be higher than they are here, but I know here at least they can be pretty awful.
Of course, given the size of the human population hunters still need to be a relative minority. If everybody decided to take up a gun and go hunting for dinner we'd have an entirely different problem.
