    "Trophy Poaching"

    Saw this article just now: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...ife-in-zambia/

    People are poaching for bush meat (as they have for decades) and the idiot journalist calls it "Trophy" Poaching. I swear these people have no clue.

    The journalist isn't calling this trophy poaching. He is saying bushmeat poaching is overtaking trophy poaching as a threat to wildlife.

        ^^^^^like he said. Direct quote:

        "The bushmeat problem often gets overshadowed by dialogue about protecting megafauna like elephants, rhinos and lions. But, in fact, it runs rampant in Zambia and is severely depleting wildlife. According to a 2012 report by the Wildlife Conservation Society, the Zoological Society of London and Panthera, it has overtaken trophy poaching as the top reason for the decline in wildlife in Zambia."

        It's actually a pretty good article...
