Is trophy hunting actually bad?

Trump lifted the ban on bringing home elephant and lion trophies. Dems and animal activists are outraged ofc.

None.

A ridiculous amount of money that goes straight to conservation.

This is correct, although it's difficult for people to stomach. Even looking at it with a supply and demand mentality will lead you to understanding that as long as people are going to pay big bucks to shoot some goddamn Giraffe, the focus will be on supply.

When will the Rhodesian communist safari start?

Isnt a huge part of the corruption in African countries is that they allow huge ransoms of money so people can kill their wildlife

When rich white guys do it, no.

When everyone tries to do it - yes. When niggers get involved, game over.

Look at the Great Lakes in Africa and chiclids. Basically these were "pristine" until the 60s when we introduced the natives to "modern technology" and within 20 years they were barren, at least compared to before.

So when you have niggers as the native "humans" where the big game hunting occurs you end up with a total mess.

Niggers. Not. Even. Once.

Often times it is in a park that is managed. Basically you are allowed to shoot the old males that wouldn't survive in the wild, but in the park they hang around and cause trouble. They would shoot them anyway, so they make a bit of money out of it.

>Isnt a huge part of the corruption in African countries is that they allow huge ransoms of money so people can kill their wildlife
You're confusing that with allocating UN food aid properly.

Hunting for survival is the only acceptable argument.

Now they actually have to raise more animals to be hunted.
No more extinction

This.

Depends how it's managed. Providing substantial income for safari parks (which if properly managed) can do far more for the welfare of the animals than doing nothing.

You are assuming Africans have foresight.

TROPHY HUNTING IS GOOD!

You can argue the economic benefits all you want, you're still just killing something for the sake of killing it. You're no better than the people who kill cats/dogs for attention on the internet.

This. To make it even more pathetic, it doesn't even prove how "manly" you are since anyone can kill anything with a rifle. Literally shooting something that can't shoot back, cutting off its head, and trying to brag about it. Sounds like a mudslimy sport if you ask me. Lions are basically big, majestic cats with families and social structures. Elephants are even more intelligent and able to feel emotion. You wouldn't kill your neighbors cat and go around town bragging about how manly you are would you?

If there is an old "bull" elephant, rhino, lion, ect. that was primarly used for breeding but is now past that point in their life then why not?

The economic benefit brings a lot of money to the local communities and goes towards conservation.

I mean, if the lion did something to your family and you went into hand to hand combat with it to defend your honor and won, that would be something and your trophy would actually mean something...otherwise, it's literally the same as using a rifle to kill your neighbors cat to show how big a man you are. No effort or skill or brawn needed...no heroism or meaning to the act...nothing that an actual trophy like an olympic medal or medal of honor etc is meant to represent.

Yeah conservation of niggers and their warlords.

literally a polished bone. what the fuck is so appealing about it?

t. has never read Death in the Long Grass.

Big game hunting is one of the fucking whitest sports there is you soyboy faggots.

>typical vegan animal hippie response
Go eat a burger loser.

what if i eat the lion afterwards and just keep the head? is it ok then.

the locals kill elephants that eat their crops and big cats that kill their livestock, at least this way they bring money into the economy

>niggers are the literal reason the animals are nearly extinct
>video still depicts the white hunters who pay to keep the animals safe and alive as the losers

This desu
Which is pointless if any hunting outpaces conservation efforts.

Black rhinos went extinct after Obamas legislation to stop imports, haha!
