Check out this BBC News Story. This is not just an animal issue but an issue for the economies for these African nations and thus the human welfare situation there. These national parks must be huge tourist magnets and without their biological diversity, and especially without the large mammals, would not be able to pull in as much money to local people as a well tended and patrolled park could.
These hunters, and the consumers of bushmeat, should be ashamed of themselves for betraying their countries economic future for a quick buck.
