Some of the National Parks guys that are actually, they're hunters who go out and shoot these animals and then remove the meat from the carcasses and refrigerate them and deliver them to the barracks so that they can supply them to the troops

This is horrible. It's first degree murder. I saw a comment recently regarding chimpanzees, but it fits elephants as well. "How intelligent does a chimpanzee (elephant) have to be before killing it is considered murder?"
However, until the world wakes up and intervenes in Zimbabwe and gets the monster who is currently the dictator, Zimbabwe and it's wildlife and even it's people are doomed. They have no food, so they are eating whatever they can. The inflation rate is some impossible number like 28,000,000,000%.
