On top of the 50 grand that you put up to get a license for a lion pelt, you are also going to be spending 1000$ a night in the hotel that is on the reservation. On top of whatever the price is for the safari, on top of the price for the guy who's going to take you to the watering hole where the lion is going to be.

It blows my mind that there are places that propagate this excursion to millionaires as a good thing to do with their money.
Why not just give the conservation 100 grand and not kill a lion.
