5 perspective changes the Game Hunting

Stories of outrage about hunters like the devil have flooded the news in recent months. Melissa Bachman, probably the most extreme of these cases, was attacked by her trophy hunting career. The opposition sent death threats and even came to request the permanent expulsion from South Africa, the location of their lion hunt. While these recent attacks against hunters have shown how compassionate we are with wild animals, it has also brought out the worst in our dealings with people of different cultural beliefs. I had the opportunity to observe and participate in a game safari in South Africa. There, with Tania Kaiser in Unico Safaris, I gained a new perspective on the industry. To help reduce the assault on sport and broaden your perspective, here are 5 little-known or little-heard facts about the hunting business.The hunt provides organic meat products, naturally bred.One could imagine the skinned animal and the excess meat left for the climate. It often surprises people when they are told that almost all the meat in trophy hunting is sold or eaten. In hunting and safari destinations such as South Africa, each part of the animal is used. You often eat what you kill. What you do not consume yourself is sold to local stores where families can buy healthy alternatives to injected cattle or cooked chicken. Hopefully this will help destroy my favorite argument of all time against hunting, "We do not need it, we have supermarkets."

Without hunting reserves, many game species would be threatened."There are no animals to see in the parks," Kaiser said when asked if we could drive through a national park on one of our day trips. The wildlife programs run by the federal government are a joke in South Africa. With a government in constant turmoil in a country where 25% of the population lives in poverty, it is not surprising that such a (formerly) abundant food source is overexploited. Private game reserves are currently the last bastions for wildlife in many African countries. Driven by profits rather than weak political policies, the conservation and protection of hunting species of antelope saber, gemsbok and impala to white rhinos, giraffes and elephants is of paramount importance for competitive hunting equipment.Hunting organizations are leaders in the financing of conservation and research, as well as humanitarian efforts.Organizations such as the International Safari Club Foundation (SCIF) raise millions of dollars annually through banquets and formal auctions. 100% of the income goes to research on conservation and population to ensure that species maintain optimal genetic diversity and health. In addition, organizations donate thousands of pounds of fresh meats to food banks and remote areas suffering from hunger. While the "barbaric" and "unnecessary" destruction of an animal may seem simply for purposes of great skill, it actually comes with some nice side effects.Hunting providers provide a great economic stimulus in impoverished areas.Unico Safaris, located near Vaalwater, South Africa, employs approximately 30 people for its small operation. Employees work on everything from housekeeping to animal tracking. In addition, the business promotes tourism in the area by advertising recreational activities such as elephant rides and zip lines. Without the presence of industry, the community would depend solely on agriculture and mining barely present. These practices are standard for game reservations in South Africa and in much of the world.The vast majority of exotic animals that are harvested for trophies are captive-bred and privately owned.In exotic hunting places like South Africa, almost all the animals hunted are part of a privately owned wildlife reserve. This is similar to the operations of grass-fed cattle or the cultivation of bison in the United States. However, instead of the animal being sent to a slaughterhouse after a year of growth, the game animal is often allowed to reproduce and live its long life before being harvested. This allows genetic diversity and managed populations within the limits of their private reserve. On a side note, photo safari destinations are also subject to population control. However, these occur at night while the Portland Vegan guest sleeps comfortably with their choice of accommodation to see animals.
