But evidence suggests hunting non-endangered animals in a large number of economic benefits for communities, provided that local people carefully it. However, it’s possible there much greater risks if the species is endangered. Unless the number of animals that are born and live to adulthood is higher than the number which are killed, future populations will die out.

Communities will need to consider all the social, cultural, environmental and economic effects if they to allow hunting, and make decisions using facts, not opinions.
