Default Objective information about trophy hunting.

Can trophy hunting actually help conservation? - Conservation

My cousin was a game warden in Washington State and did other animal related jobs on Cape Cod. I remember him talking about conservation issues and the need to thin out animal populations once in a while. He was never a trophy hunter though and cannot think of anyone is my quite large family that does this. I doubt if he even did any hunting as a game warden just enforced the law of the State of Washington. Sometimes a dangerous job and he was often near Native American tribes that still hunted for needed game.

I am interested though in links about trophy hunting and its pros and cons.

Anyone have scientific information about this?
