The reason there are huntable numbers in certain sub Saharan countries is because those countries have permitted hunting and those nations receive millions in fees for access to hunting said game. Because those species have had a value put on them, they are protected by those nations and poachers are treated as vile criminals and shot on sight in certain situations.

The best thing for those species is hunting.

Without foreigners on hunting safaris, large wild mammals are dangerous pests. It's no accident that lions, which once thrived all over the globe, have been hunted to extinction in most civilized regions. No one wants to roll the dice with his life on a daily basis.
