Should Volcanic Dragons be Hunted?

We have been discussing whether or not Volcanic Dragons should be hunted. This is a hot topic at the moment because citizens have sighted these creatures soaring overhead and most have locked themselves in their houses out of terror.

Many villagers think that these dragons should be exterminated because they are known for attempting to burn all things flammable, they are also well known to hunt and eat livestock, which would not be good for their economy. Additionally these beasts have demolished many buildings with their bubbling lava and in the past have even harmed humans. Furthermore, people argue that dragons are heartless beings and have previously hurt them in many ways.

On the other hand, some individuals insist that the Volcanic Dragon should be given another chance, and show that they mean the locals no harm as they could offer a good source of protection.

I think that dragons should not be hunted and are welcome to wander the neighbourhood safely, but if anything gets out of hand, we will exterminate them immediately.
