Hate to break this to you, but stop being ruled by emotion and go research what has happened with these big game populations over in africa and which states over there, especailly in the states that allow legalized hunting vs those that have banned it....

You will soon learn those that have continued to allow legalized hunting are the only states where the populations are not in massive decline.

Banning doesnt work.. Africa is not the US... There is no ability at any national or even regional level to stop poaching, nor is there funding to pay for it.. the ONLY way you can impact it, is by making the animals valuable to the land or animal owner, and the only way you do that is by legalized hunting....

The fees fund anti poaching enforcement and make the animals valuable to their owners/land holders, so they themselves protect them as well....

This bleeding heart stupidity is why Rhinos are virtually extinct in most of Africa today, because of the idiotic BAN on their hunting in most nations, made their value NOTHING except to those willing to kill them for no reason but to sell their horn.

Stop being an emotional basket case and get informed.

No one is banning hunting. Trump is banning the importation of elephant trophies into the USA. Learn to understand facts and not imply this is a total ban on all hunting in Africa
