    Why are the antelopes less important than the elephants?

      One has a fragile population and is well respected the other doesn’t. It’s for the same reason Bison hunting is looked down apon but annihilating a boar with a landmine wouldn’t be.

      Edit: Just noticed that the species he was hunting was endangered, fuck him. My point still stands for boars though
