Tell me, what happens if we rip away hunting when hunting protects more wildlife land in Africa than national parks? Conservation is concerned about protecting populations, species, habitats, ecosystems. Take an example, Tembe Elephant Park in South Africa. And culls of Nyala have been proposed. I’m sorry.
