Yes, there are more
effective methods. Such as poison, which is what ranchers in WY sometimes use. I don't see that as any more humane (but I don't disagree with it).
The 'dogs are going to die one way or the other. It seems to me that developing good shooting skills in the process of pest control is better than drive-by poison dumps.

At the end of the day the point isn't should they be doing it, it is why would anyone choose to watch it for fun? I don't think anyone has an issue with the actions, it is the movie making that is disturbing and if you don't see that perspective, I think you may want to do a little inner reflecting. Why watch it?

Tonight, you should turn on the evening news. I guarantee that whatever you see, if you think about it, is significantly more horrifying than anything that could appear in a prairie dog hunting video.
Unless, of course, you think that rape, murder, child abuse, and war are more wholesome "entertainment" than rodents being shot in a spectacular fashion.
