As usual, their action will backfire, and hurt the animals and conservation efforts they claim to want to support.
Where do these asshats think the funds to support conservation efforts come from? Certainly NOT from the countries themselves! Just like how the anti-hunting fanatics here in the states don’t realize that eliminating hunting results in over-population, and that it’s the hunting licenses that fund conservation.
Farmers see many of the animals as competition for scarce resources, and need a financial reason to support “conservation,” and it needs to pay more than the damage the animals cause the farmers and villagers in Africa.

Very few liberals get it that hunters are behind the money in conservation.
