Zimbabwe is set to cull 200 elephants, a decision made amid severe food shortages due to its worst drought in over 40 years, raising ethical concerns.
Officials, citing Namibia's past culling for human consumption, will process the harvested elephant meat to aid communities facing food insufficiency.
Experts worry that the elephant cull may tarnish Zimbabwe's international image and lead to a decline in tourism, impacting the economy.
With approximately 100,000 elephants, Zimbabwe holds the second largest elephant population globally, underscoring the significance of this conservation challenge.
