A 15K province can be patrol-hunted for minimal tax loss, since you don't need to drop taxes to hunt there: Also, the higher population allows Growth to offset the kills from blood hunting.

Finally, you'll often have a fort in such provinces, which allows you to protect a lab/temple infrastructure, as well as your blood hunters, so they are not all killed by random marauders. The patrollers are still at risk, but they often tend to be cheap or expendable things.
