It is a fact that South Africa has the best animal conservation parks in the world. It is also the place where many hunters try to see if they have what it takes to hunt in the real world. In fact, long ago, hunting in Africa was so rampant that it was considered short next to massacre. But with the law abiding the conservation parks, hunting now is very closely monitored so as not to endanger a species. This enables the animals for more procreation. But even so, the conservation parks are utilized not for hunting but to make sure that the animals are safe and well taken care of.

This is done in order to have a fair number of animals and for them not to run out of supply of food.
