actions they promote... from culling and sport hunting

[GoodTaste]

By the phrase "conservation organizations and scientists frequently downplay or ignore the ethical implications of actions they promote that harm individual animals, from culling and sport hunting", it tells us that scientists promote sport hunting. Is it what it means?

It reminds me of news stories about sport hunters hunted rare animals, which is disgusting. Does it remind you the same way?
=====================

Leading conservationists have emphasized that conservation's priority is the protection of species and populations, not the welfare of individual nonhuman animals (hereafter “animals”) (1–3). Although individual conservationists often harbor concern for animal welfare, conservation organizations and scientists frequently downplay or ignore the ethical implications of actions they promote that harm individual animals, from culling and sport hunting to the discontinuation of wildlife rescue from oil spills (3–5). A growing body of scientific evidence should prompt conservation organizations to reconsider their inattention to animal welfare.
