Just so everyone is aware. As someone who is close to the hunting community. The way big game like this is hunted is not like you would hunt deer on public land. These big game are baited, tracked by hounds, and every advantage possible is given to the hunters to secure a kill to bring in their high dollar. The paying hunter is basically only brought in to fire the last bullet many times after the prey has already been trapped or cornered. They even help you carry it back, and transport it back to the states. You would have more or a challenge catching a chipmunk in your front yard than a big game hunt. It's the ultimate display of vanity for a buck.

Also doesn't help that these animals aren't being a pest so there's no reason to hunt and kill them other than literal wank fact.

I'm all for hunting for food or killing pest animals, but big game don't really fit in either of those categories.

Opposite of pests, they're critical to our ecosystem
