Summary: Whether in the African bush or in America's game lands, hunting has bred enormous controversy in recent years. The killing of Cecil the lion in Zimbabwe in 2015 triggered a firestorm of international criticism over trophy hunting, and the regulated hunting of the white-tailed deer in the United States has sparked opposition over conservation and other issues. Defenders argue that hunting can conserve wildlife populations and raise money to protect animals. Opponents argue that hunting is an inhumane way to conserve wildlife and that the funds raised seldom benefit threatened animal populations or local communities. Is hunting appropriate? Do hunters conserve wildlife?
