I think they are doing a lot better in some places. Plus, I'll bet a lot of that money is invested back into preserving wildlife.

I am a hunter but I dont like trophy hunting. The elephant hunting does alot of good. They are not endangered everywhere. Where aloud the hunting does this:
1 it raises money to stop poaching
2 it feeds a village (the guide gets the meat for his village, the hunter gets the trophy, with fake tusks)

Not a book, a story - magazine piece. 14,000 words. Sorry but I couldn't resist. Thought someone may want to read it..his pieces are very entertaining to read.

But yes game hunting is bad, if you so insist upon knowing my opinion.
