Savage-
You're way off base here on a number of points.
It's already been pointed out that one can only hunt leopard by baiting and, even then, there are considerable challenges. I was in Africa last month. One of the hunters took a great Tom; last I saw of the meat, the trackers were smoking it over a fire; including the trachea. I assure you, other than Crocodile in some parts, nothing in Africa gets thrown away; in fact, by their standards you sin mightily by not eating the the lungs, heart, stomach, tongue and brains of most North American game.
As to the "endangered" animals:
- Did you mean in Kenya, which had the largest game population in all of Africa just before banning all hunting in the 1960's. There's no game left in Kenya today. Guess why?
- Perhaps you meant in Zimbabwe which is quickly going the way of Kenya, with the army slaughtering herds wholesale?
- Then again, perhaps you were referring to the USA where some 80%+ of all funds for State Wildlife Conservation comes from hunting fees, hunter donations and hunter group efforts?
