CMV: Hunting is disturbing and being happy you killed something is disturbing

Hey y'all. I'm really honestly looking for someone to shed some light on this for me. My boyfriend has recently gotten into hunting and it bothers me a lot. I've been an animal lover my entire life (yes I eat meat though) and could never imagine harming something myself. Hunting deer and geese seem to make my boyfriend really happy and I WANT to be supportive of him and happy for him when he gets a kill. But I cannot help feeling internal anger, disgust, and hurt. I understand hunting for food is natural and has been a thing since the beginning of time, but it just freaks me out and makes me feel weird seeing people pose with animals they killed. Please can someone give me some perspective and ways to deal with it so I can be both an animal lover AND be supportive of my bf's new hobby. Thanks so much :)

EDIT: I’d like to thank everyone that has commented respectfully and I plan to work on my perspective with a lot of your comments in mind. I really appreciate the constructive criticism and new ways to look at things. To those downvoting my comments (because you don’t agree with me or are offended I assume), I posted this with the most genuine interest in having my views changed and having thoughtful conversation. I didn’t mean to target anyone. But still, go fuck yourselves. :)

Hunting can help the environment.  Too many deer in one area can overgraze it and cause habitat loss.  In Yellowstone wolves have been introduced and the environment for many species has improved.  It worked in Yellowstone, but introducing wolves won't work everywhere.  
Too many geese can destroy a field of winter wheat.  If they are not hunted for food, they will be shot as vermin and left to rot where they lie.  
Hunting is more than just getting an animal in your sights and squeezing the trigger.  It's about understanding the animal and it's habits. There have been many cases where hunters have raised the alarm over a ecological issue.  For them keeping the environment balanced is very important.  The disappearance of a species which isn't their target tells them something is changing.  The ecosystem is a complex web and hunters are our free eyes and ears of the system.
