Seems like a shitty thing to assume about everyone who has ever hunted Africa.If it's so righteous, why the need to justify it so hard? Blah Blah, helps the locals, pays for management. Same tired story.
It's a trophy hunt and those doing the hunts could care less whether it helps the locals or not. They could care less if the meat gets used, eaten by a hyena, or rots in the sun.
I specifically chose a CAMPFIRE concession to hunt elephant in because of the benefits to locals.
I very much cared where the 10,000 pound animal's meat went to.
-The chief got the trunk.
-The CAMPFIRE concession got the skin panels.
-We ate some backstraps at the kill site that I cooked over a fire, and took some of the temple meat to camp to eat ourselves.
-The rest went to the 100 or so people who came to the carcass with knives, hatchets and machetes.
-The ants got the puddle of grease they left behind.
But I'm sure you know how all this works since you one time clapped an elk out of a pivot field with a guy who's dad once lived in Africa.
