Abstract

Trophy hunting in Zimbabwe and elsewhere in the world today is witnessing raging debates on its relevance or irrelevance in all its forms of significance, acceptance and effectiveness as a conservation tool hence the hunting paradox [1].Whereas hunting was considered the most logical thing to do for eons of years its continued practice is under severe threats [2]. Trophy hunting has become a controversial topic in the conservation community, some argues that it can subsidize for the safeguarding of wild animals and their habitats whilst others share the perception that trophy hunting exploits species, rural people and contributes little if anything to conservation of wild game animals [3]. Globally trophy hunting has been shown to be detrimental to several species including lions [4].
