Not to mention safari and some illicit hunting.

Yes I agree. Moreover, paradoxically as it may seem, I believe that 
it is actually muggle-lovers and `centrists' who are so keen in 
maintaining the secrecy and the divide between the two worlds. 
Radical pure-blood could actually care less. So long that 
their "natural birthright" is assured and munbloods are kept in 
their place there is no reason for them to be discreet. This was the 
message behind that little DE performance at the World Cup.
