as i said i have nothing against it, and while i personally would not want to shoot big cats elephant or rhino a buffalo would not be so lucky, and would love to go baboon/hippo hunting.but this is my personal preference and admittedly biased to certain animals.
the game farms have kept a lot of species from extinction they are not all shot as people think, i watched a few documentaries on it from the game farms point of view, they seemed to actually care about the animals and it was in there interest to keep the game stocks healthy. they were supplying game reserves with breading stock to try and help keep the wild numbers up. this is funded by people paying to hunt the others.
nothing was wasted the meat was given to the local people, hides were processed etc and they bought the still born calves from cattle farms to feed the big cats, a waste product that would normally get dumped .
anyone caught in a game reserve with a gun or caught poaching should be shot on site, no questions asked just shot, this would deliver a message quick enough.
my problem was not the animals getting hunted and humanely dispatched, it was people taking stupid shots at and wounding live animals, then paying others to track the animals down while they congratulated each other
