    Why Trophy hunting can be good for animal conservation efforts This is an interesting argument and most people, (me included) find it hard to accept. I don’t like trophy hunting I cannot see why anyone would enjoy paying a large sum of money to kill an animal that has done nothing to deserve death. Frankly, the argument is counterintuitive. How can killing animals save animals from being killed? Keep an open mind. Evidence suggests that in specific situations trophy hunting can really help…
