It beats my understanding as to how a tourist would pay nearly US$ 300,000 to kill a rhino or a rich Arab who come and disposes people in order to be to hunt the wild game. By the way how do you value an animal like a rhino in monetary terms? Though the money involved is lucrative but are the consequences to biodiversity. The rhino population has been declining every year due to various factors like poaching and so by allowing sport hunting i reckon it will be like adding an insult to the injury.
Game hunting should be banned completely though an exemption could be made on the cultural grounds, though this should be closely monitored to avoid exploitation. Our governments should avoid being greedy and be innovative enough in finding new avenue of raising funds and game hunting should not be one of them.
