Namibia is conducting a large-scale culling of wildlife, including elephants and hippos, to provide meat for its population struggling with the worst drought in a century.
The culling aims to address both food insecurity and prevent wildlife from migrating into human settlements, which could lead to conflicts.
Ethical Considerations
While the culling of wild animals for meat is not unusual in southern Africa, it has raised ethical questions.
Experts argue that if done sustainably and in accordance with both domestic and international regulations, it should not be a cause for concern.
