        People don't realize, these hunts bring funding to the preserves, which can then afford to maintain the land and manage species responsibly

        ...and kill their cattle, often the people's only source of livelihood. W/o hunts, the locals would kill them all, as pests.

        These reserves also have fences to keep wildlife in making it easier for hunters

        It's illegal to hunt the nat. park reserves in Africa like Kruger or Hwange. If animals leave, and they do, they can be hunted legally.

        If trophy hunters really love animals, please donate money to Africa and go to hunt robot animals, as many as they want. .

        It also is important to note trophy hunting tags are sold to rid a population of an overly aggressive, older alpha male

        You realize that this was a hunt authorized by conservationists who utilize the money from these things to support their ecology work, yes?

        Trophy hunters should be held accountable for shooting lions or any endangered animals this is terrible Zimbabwe should not allow this.

        It's illegal to shoot endangered animals, the hunt followed legal regulations, and the money supports their economy.

        Anyone who calls #TrophyHunting a sport is delusional. They are sociopathic murderers.
