I know if I was paying per deer shot or by the hour I would want the best bang for buck I could get, and also want someone to clean up as many as possible, not just a few and educate the rest to be wary of hunters/people etc.
I only know one professional culler and I'm sure part of his business relies on selling the meat for pet food as part of the cost consideration.
No one runs a business at a loss for long.

If it’s who I think it is, it’s definitely a lifestyle not a decent money maker. Majority of income comes from selling for pet food.
