The issue of hunting in Africa is a whole can of worms you probably don't want to get into but thought I'd chip in. Personally I think hunting of all wild endangered and threatened species like lions, rhinos and elephants be banned (did you know some countries still allow licensed hunting of rhinos which are already under extreme pressure). For what it's worth here is one link to a study that shows hunting tourism is of little economic benefit to african countries and almost no benefit to local communities.

I've been to africa on photography safari's. You can pay to take thousands photos of a lion but you can only kill it once. Botswana is one country recognizing the increased benefits of photography safari's and banning hunting concessions. Older elephants with large tusks and decades of memories of migratory routes and 'cultural' knowledge are becoming very rare.
