An interesting possibility: here.
And then a summary rejection: here.
OF NOTE: the ad hominem slippery slope of moral equivalency (three fallacies in one):
The case emerged after a local newspaper photo showed the fisherman proudly showing off the four-foot-long fish—a scene that, to Mr. Goetschel, was reminiscent of a safari hunter with his foot perched on the head of a dead lion. "It is this Hemingway thinking," he says. "Why should this be legal when other animals have to be slaughtered in a humane way?"
To be clear, I'm very much in support of certain animal rights restrictions and regulations (would it be so bad a thing if you had to get a license to own a dog or cat?). But this kind of thinking has to be done in a philosophically honest and legally restrained manner. More on this later...
