Lots of cultures are allowed quotas by their governments to harvest resources other people aren’t allowed.

One such is the annual Taiji dolphin catch in Japan[1]. But native Alaskans and Canadians have certain rights too.

As long as they don’t contribute to extinction this is better than modern animal husbandry such as veal.
