What if Hunting and Fishing came to an End

It is no secret that the Humane Society or the ASPCA is all about the animals and would love to stop hunting all together. But what many people might not know is how their ideals might not always be in our best interest. For instance the CEO of the Humane Society stated that
"If we could shut down all sport hunting in a moment, we would. ... Our goal is to get sport hunting in the same category as cock fighting and dog fighting." Now although he didn't state anything about fishing it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that fishing wouldn't be far behind hunting. Now lets just say that these anti-hunters get their way do they really understand what economic problems will follow. Do they know that recreational fishing supports a million jobs, pays $45 billion in wages and has an overall economic impact of $125 billion in the United States annually. I can't even imagine what would happen if our economy took another hit. No here are just some interesting numbers to show just how important the fishing community is to the economy.
-Fishing is more popular than golf and tennis combined in the United States
-If the fishing industry was a national corporation, it would rank number 47 on the Fortune 500 list of companies
-Sport fishing supports more than a million jobs, three times the number of employees hired by United Parcel Service
-Research by the National Sporting Goods Association ranks fishing sixth out of 42 recreational activities surveyed
