I find that very frustrating. The "achievement" narrative is so entrenched.
It goes further in our parts, with stalking (deer shooting) which, eg, you can see in Landseer's "Monarch of the Glen". A herbivore is portrayed as some apex predator that needs to be tamed (with a high velocity bullet). What's regarded as cunning in needing to be stalked is just fear on the part of the deer. It's cosplaying, really.
