" if they do reproduce naturally would that make hunting them cruel and wrong."

Now, that is a strange criterium - virus and bacteria also reproduce 'naturally', so I guess that is not what is meant.

Grimm have no soul, while animals do, so I think that's where the relevant difference lies.

A hypthesis:

Man is made from Dust, Dust is called 'Nature's Wrath' - what if Dust is emitting radiation, the radiation negatively affects Grimm, but did create Soul by mutation. Then Soul created Aura and thus Man (another mutation?), then Man learned to control Aura. And with the control of Aura Man is protected from the negative effects of Dust and can thus manipulate and use it safely. The circle is closed...
