Yes....but I do have some qualms about hunting non predator big game - rightly or wrongly.

I don’t know about the numbers and thinning needs or any of the many other possible justifications for it, but the picture just strikes me as something I’d not want to do personally. I don’t condemn it outright per se, but it’s something that just isn’t my cup of tea.

If it's tightly regulated and the proceeds go to the greater good of the parks then one can,IMO,make a case in favor.But in Africa neither proper regulation *nor* proper distribution of proceeds can be assumed.

The tourism business for people to come and view the animals could be bigger if the African countries would get their acts together. There’s lots of money to be made from tourists.
