In some circles, it is assumed that photographic tourism can replace hunting tourism and thereby form the basis for nature and wildlife conservation. Experience from Tanzania, however, shows a different reality. Of the country’s 21 national parks, only five—including iconic areas such as Serengeti and Ngorongoro—generate sufficient revenue to cover their own operating costs. The remaining parks operate at a permanent financial deficit.
In more remote areas, where photographic tourism does not reach, it is therefore regulated hunting tourism that finances conservation. Hunting concessions in western Tanzania generate higher revenues than neighboring national parks and at the same time function as critical buffer zones through self-funded anti-poaching efforts.
If hunting is removed, the only economic engine protecting millions of hectares of wild land outside the well-known parks is removed as well. This is therefore not a question of either photographic tourism or hunting. Effective conservation requires both.
