If you're going to kill something, call a spade a spade. Don't disrespect the life by pretending otherwise.

I think it's because harvest implies you're getting use out of the animal outside of killing it. Hunters like to make the distinction that they are also hunting for food as well as sport. Because, as a hunter, if you're hunting solely for some weird joy of killing things, you're a sociopath.
