It’s more like that hunting permit fees fund actual conservation efforts, not that there’s really much of a legitimate conservation effect from the hunting itself. (Except maybe when it’s an invasive species.)
Sure, I guess you could apply license fees for hunting permits on billionaires to conservation efforts if you insist.
I vote to use their hoard similar to the Susan G Komen foundation. Awareness of the issue, funding the members(mass populous) with a bit going to research
I wonder what percentage goes to the actual conservation efforts, after all the cuts and bribes by the middlemen
It depends heavily where it is. Some of the programs are very very good, others are corrupt af.
The best ones give the people living in proximity to the animals recourse when said animals destroy crops or property. This plus giving back a portion of the fees to help community enrichment projects incentivizes protection of the animals by the locals, which deters poaching and stuff.
