Mike, when it comes to hunting, I wouldn't bullshit you. I've done it my whole life, from the time that I could even carry a bow, rifle, or shotgun. My dad's brother goes on a ton of trophy hunts. The cost far outweighs the reward of a mere "trophy". It's the experience that far outweighs any cost. To get into the woods, or the outback, or the desert....that's the experience. To get out there and walk miles, or trek for miles in a vehicle or on a quad or whatever...just to get one look at the animal in it's own environment. To get that close....

All of the animals that he has taken went as gifts to the local tribesmen, who cleaned it, cut up the meat, and dried the hides for multiple uses. The tribesmen in turn gave them a feast and provided the guide so that they too could benefit from the hunt. The problem with using spears and all of that other shit it is downright dangerous for the tribesmen, and not worth the risk to their people. Dangerous game hunting didn't flourish until the Dutch colonized Africa around the time of King Leupold. There's a great book out the called "King Leupold's Ghost". It's mostly about how the shithead enslaved a million Africans and murdered the rest, but there is a lot in there regarding hunting dangerous game.
