Is it degenerate?
Rich white people do this often.
Look at the owner of Jimmy Johns celebrating his glorious kill over this dumb fat elephant.

Most poaching is done by asians and niggers.

It's one of the last sources of incomes for poor, starving African countries. If it were to be outlawed or even more stigmatized so the rich white guys stop going the Africa and killing useless critters, many Africans would be even poorer and starve.
So no, it's not okay.
Rich white people paying to legally hunt nuisance old males or some shit like that actually help the species more than crying on the internet.

well played.

Not to mention that the money spent is largely spent on conservation of the local land/wildlife and the hunts that are arranged the animal being hunted is specifically selected for being too old or destructive to the region

Oh god the word "degenerate" is starting to be misused.
It's not ok, but it's not degenerate.

Chinese businessmen do it a lot too, same with Africans and Saudi princes. The media only pushes it when it's a white guy. Stop being a racist shitlord.

It's the opposite. It empowers the soul.
If anything, we need more people to hunt these animals, because hunters are the only groups which can truly protect the environment. Eventually, they'll pool their wealth together to protect Africa for future generations of hunters. Hunting also teaches a man about his relationship to the environment (if you love a place, leave it alone.)

>Poaching is a business.
>Hunting is a sport.
This is why Hunters are keen to protect the environment. Because poachers make money fucking up nature, while hunters spend money protecting nature.

fify
Also I doubt they would care if all the feral natives up and killed everything
>>66579044
Natural selection.

That's been a thing for a while now. Outsiders come here and throw words we use back at us without understanding what they mean.
>>66579044
I don't like that these animals are being shot, but hunting licenses are paying for the conservation of endangered animals. As long as not too many are being killed, it should be okay.

God has given mankind dominion over the beasts of the Earth. They exist solely at our pleasure.
>>66579044
>Is it degenerate?
No it's about reaffirming our hold on nature

Depends on how it's used. It doesn't mean flashy weirdos or attention-whores exclusively either. If someone got excited of killing an animal based on its almost-extinct state, someone could definitely call him a degenerate.
