Considering this, does trophy hunting help endangered species?
Trophy Hunting does not support Conservation and is helping pushing species to the brink of extinction. Excessive hunting has been for decades, one of the main reasons these species are going extinct. Trophy hunting is a booming business across Africa. Hunters pay up to $50,000 to shoot a rare endangered animal.
Furthermore, should we save all endangered species? Healthy ecosystems depend on plant and animal species as their foundations. When a species becomes endangered, it is a sign that the ecosystem is slowly falling apart. Each species that is lost triggers the loss of other species within its ecosystem. Humans depend on healthy ecosystems to purify our environment.

Endangered Species
Hunters continue to kill endangered animals or those on the brink of endangerment, sometimes because they are unable to properly identify exactly which species of animal they are killing. This inability is most serious before sunrise when the hunting day begins.
