Safari Specialty ImportersFriday from the Field: Anti-hunting Efforts = Neocolonialism
Today's story is in response to the continued effort of the UK to ban the import of hunting trophies. It is a rare bit of hypocrisy that those who state that Western Countries should not meddle in the affairs of African nations are more than happy to do so when it comes to those countries furry and hooved natural resources.
Wildlife must compete with the other needs of the modern world. Hunting pays for the land, anti-poaching efforts, and the communities that have tied themselves to the growth and maintenance of the wildlife populations. Let Africans decide what is best for African wildlife!

the PomI'm quite surprised "The Guardian" printed that story as it is the paper of choice for educated liberal/socialists. The story is more even-handed than most articles on the subject in the UK press, and it could have been much worse. I can only conclude that it is an opportunity to have a go at the Conservative government even if the "Guardian readership abhor trophy hunting even more than Boris Johnson's wife and friends.
