While local subsistence hunters welcomed the closures
"Welcomed"..... No, they demanded it - and it had nothing to do with herd dynamics, but that was a handle to hang it on.
Racist and protectionism are ugly words.
I will say, however, that they get little or nothing of monetary value out of the visiting "sport" hunters. No guiding, equipment rentals and very little of anything else.
Wouldn't one call that lazy stupidity? The opportunity to guide, rent etc.. is there for all to give a go at.
nothing is life is guaranteed and you certainly have to change as you go along or you are behind...
