Wouldn't the tribe just kill it, if it needed the meat?
Seems weird that they would need a hunter to come from the other side of the world to kill one of their animals, so they can have a feast.

yep. people need to stop confusing what the dentist did that day with hunting

The tribe can't afford to kill it.

An example of this in Botswana.

No, because they raise cattle for meat... but here's the real truth

I agree although deer are pests and yet their populations thrive

That's because here in the US we work on the opposite end of the spectrum

the fact that this guy is being prosecuted tells you it wasn't "game management"

You may not have noticed, that but this evolved into a discussion on hunting.

Isn't big game hunting "killing because you like to kill" as you stated?
