the trophy hunter kills for sport :geordi-no:
the trophy hunter is killed for sport :geordi-yes:
This is cool and good. Only sucks that it didn't happen sooner.
I wish afrikkkaners are as oppressed as they claimed.
There’s a video of an African guy whipping some white people. I don’t know if they’re British or South African - in my eyes they’re all the same. Anyway people were all huffing and puffing about it then someone said that they got whipped because they refused to pay the workers lol
There’s a lot of “anti poaching” organizations, usually headed by white people who go after random villagers and traffickers. I mean, they’re not exempt from being assholes, but I imagine the people who run legal exotic hunting companies deserve to be punished first before anyone else.
There's going to be a lot of reply guys talking about how this is wrong because trophy hunting is actually good for the animals. I feel like leftist conservation isn't talked about all that often, but it's really the only way to protect the planet properly.
:wojak-nooo: Noooo we need to pander to these psychotic wealthy murderers because there's literally no other reason to preserve wild spaces!
Lions are a threatened species though, how is ot good to hunt them?
The argument usually goes something like "the money these trophy hunters pay to hunt the animal pays for the conservation of x numbers of other animals"
This.
The problem is that it's kind of misguided. I don't honestly know how much of the money goes to the actual conservation of the animals, but it probably varies depending on the government that provides the license. However, this means that there's not so much of an incentive to protect the environment as there is to increase the number of game animals. If your sole aim is to increase the number of lions, great! if your aim is a to create a balanced, healthy ecosystem, perhaps not so much.
Again, I don't know of any specific wildlife preserves in Africa where this is a problem, but deer parks in Britain are largely devoid of ground flora because the number of deer is artificially high and there are no natural predators. It can also lead to food shortages for the animals, which leads to a large, yet unhealthy population.
Not to mention, what if people stop buying the hunting licences? They probably never will, but what if they do? Then where is the money going to come from?
Tanzanian anti-poaching rangers are braver than western troops, plus they’re armed with folding stock AKs which is rad.
Hell yeah, wholesome af :wholesome:
though I think anyone that eats animals saying this is good has some self crit to do!
I'd have to disagree with the last part. He went on an ego trip based on damaging the environment, and died. If he was trying to climb everest or cut down the oldest tree and this happened I would find it just as funny.
