For the hunting experience, many hunters enjoy the being outdoors and learning about the animals. harvesting the animal is only the last 20 seconds of a hunt..Also with many of those speices like elephant the meat is donated to local villages to help feed familys. One jumbo will feed a village for a month or more, plus you're hiering local bushmen for packers and trackers spotters and animal cleaning and field dressing so going on a hunt like that really helps in a direct way the local people..
