Can hunting endangered animals save the species?

Unfortunately, this model may be less successful when applied to animals such as the dromedary jumping-slug.

“If the animals exist only to be hunted, you’d rather they not exist at all.”
“Not in Texas, no.”

I’m not pro-hunting when someone’s not eating whatever gets killed, but considering it’s either this or a markedly greater chance that the species goes extinct, I’m happy that some rednecks have found a way to incentivize conservation. The government (in the US or in the animals natural habitats) sure as fuck isn’t going to foot the bill. Fuck that lady.
