1. Some African countries are fine with it because it brings in big bucks

from rich asshole hunters. That's why they don't prohibit it.

2. You beat me to it.

3. And due to corruption, that money often goes to a few officials, not to conservation efforts or

local villages. Though big game hunters often like to claim that hunting aids conservation.

4. It depends on the country. Most try to have large areas where

it’s prohibited, and then buffer zones where natives can hunt certain animals, and then some game preserves. But a place like Serenghetti National Park has huge untended borders where the land is hard to patrol, but they try. And they hire guards from the villages around the park which is where most of the poachers helpers come from- in the hope they start to understand an income can come from stewardship of the land as well.
It doesn’t always work, but Tanzania is trying hard. Their policy on poachers is to shoot on sight, and they generally don’t report on it.... I’m not sure it’s legal, but it’s a thing “everyone knows”.

6. Trophy hunting often happens on private game preserves...

...Those assholes aren't out stalking their prey in the wild. And tragically, that activity is legal in several places.

7. Yeah, they have designated areas for it. Even in countries doing a great job preserving large park

areas.

5. Yes, and other countries get to decide

what can be brought into their borders. Unfortunately we have a corrupt decider.

8. They do and charge big $$&& for it
