Original Note:
The trophy fee for a giraffe is about $2k to $3k per animal. Money from legal hunting helps support the local community, and provides an incentive to make sure big game animals don't become extinct. Meat is given away to feed local villagers, including children at orphanages. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/animalia/wp/2018/07/03/she-said-she-killed-this-giraffe-to-save-more-giraffes/
