At the Idaho Statesman, Rocky Barker columnizes:

"The killing of a beloved lion by a Minnesota trophy hunter on the edge of a Zimbabwe reserve produced worldwide outrage Wednesday, the same day Idaho officials were picking the winner of a lottery tag for hunting a bighorn sheep in the state. ... People who universally condemn hunters because of (Minnesota dentist Walter) Palmer’s act don’t understand the critical role hunters play in conservation. The Safari Club, which promotes trophy hunting and conservation, suspended Palmer’s membership Wednesday, along with that of the guide." More here.

Question: Do you understand the critical role hunters play in conservation?
