The argument can be made that baiting bears is the most sporting way to hunt them. It takes days of preparation and work to get a bait station running. In the end the hunter knows the routines of the local bears and can set himself up for a perfect shot angle at a close distance. Anti-hunters like to complain that hunters take long shots or have an unfair advantage with long range rifles, but when a hunter sets himself up for a close shot at a good angle, they call that unsporting too.
