Elephants were there long before humans. How about the elephants export the leadership of Botswanan and issue permits for their decapitatuon....how about that?

Funny how Germany that is famous for its atrocities keeps on preaching others 😂

It's a ban on the import of hunting trophies. It's perfectly reasonable for a country like Germany to put restrictions on what goods are allowed to cross their borders, that's their right.
Nobody is stopping Botswana from killing problematic elephants. They just can't profit from it.
If Botswana's president needs help with establishing an environmental agency that controls the elephant population, and with combating corruption, I'm sure Germany would be willing to help.

So not killing animals is causing them to breed? So, life without humans.
