I mean if they go on field trips or hunting missions don't they hear of the towns it's been ruining since Ren was a kid? That was like 8 or 10 years ago. Someone needs to be fired if they're not going to do their basic job as a Huntsmen and kill that which trampled on humanity. The only excuse I could understand is: "It's so powerful we tried to take it down dozens of times over the years, but it never dies. It's just escapes and returns again." Haven is the academy, which is in the capital city of Mistral.

Mistral is the kingdom, and according to Qrow, the Kingdom of Mistral's territory is absolutely massive and covers so much land that the areas further away from the capital city tend to have the government paying less attention to them. That's how the further territories end up with so many criminals and such a large black market.

And like GreyStark said, there are a lot of weapons in the Nuckelavee's cave, implying it's faced lots of Huntsmen over the years.
