[[What would you think if they showed up and asked to pay you to do this job? Kinda odd, right?]]

That wasn’t the point of my statement- as explained above-

Trophy hunters are different- Yes they pay for the experience- BUT the experience is more than just going out and shooting the trophy and going home in an hour or so- it’s the whole African (or wherever they hunt) experience- days hunting in beautiful places- seeing things you’ve never seen before, experiencing life on a different level- meeting new people and learning about different societies- etc etc, and at the end of the day getting to take home a reminder of that whole experience- -

[[The responsible management of domestic and wild species includes culling.]]

Which is what almost all trophy hunters engage in nowadays (Those who hunt legally) as hunting trophies is a tightly regulated process and is part of the culling process-

Like I said it depends on the difficulty level of the hunt. It can’t be I ‘got to see Africa and slaughter a gimpy tame giraffe for only $40,000’ and not be a complete weirdo in my book. I mean they are paying them to kill this animal, which probably needs to be killed no matter what. Unless it is a challenge why would anyone pay for that? I mean come on.
