Joe Rogan Explains Hunting to Russell Brand

Joe Rogan breaks down hunting’s ethics and purpose to Russell Brand. Rogan emphasizes hunting as spiritually intense, sustainable, and more humane compared to the cruelty of factory farming. He explains that hunters regulate wildlife populations, bolster conservation funding, and support habitat restoration—efforts crucial to reviving species like elk and deer. While Brand admits he feels empathy toward animals, Rogan counters by noting that death in the wild—via predators or disease—is far harsher. He frames ethical hunting as a respectful, natural intervention within the circle of life.
