A marketing & spending analysis of trophy hunters - 2015/2016 season
It has been argued that trophy hunting generates millions of rands, which strongly contributes to South Africa’s economy in revenue. Recent literature regarding this industry lacks, especially regarding the economic impact as well as the profile of these hunters. As a result, TREES (Tourism Research in Economic Environs and Society), in cooperation with PHASA (Professional Hunters of South Africa) decided to research the trophy hunting industry in South Africa, thereby filling a gap in the literature of this very large industry.
