Hunters go to Africa to shoot lions, and this is without question a good thing; for birds, for ecosystems, and for lions in general! The interests of those working for conservation and those working for animal rights and animal welfare don’t always perfectly align like you might think they do. Oh, and then there are the hunters.
The National Animal Interest Alliance is an association of business, agricultural, scientific, and recreational interests dedicated to promoting animal welfare, supporting responsible animal use and strengthening the bond between humans and animals.

They spoke before a hearing on the proposed ban. I'm not sure it will pass though.
An explanation is given about how market hunters and the draining of wetlands left no place for migrating waterfowl to land or feed and “ the Great Plains soon became a mass graveyard for migratory birds, raising the question, how do we protect birds from man ?

Palin is known as an avid hunter; Scully is best known for his vigorous defense of animal rights.

And people that work in either conservation or animal welfare tend to like animals.
I get that you’re really angry, I mean, he was a popular lion and yes, his cute widdle cubs will probably die to, but I can’t help feeling you’ve kind of missed the point a bit, and well, ending all hunting in Africa will not solve much and maybe make things worse and… No, no, I’m not a hunter.
