An African hunter who killed over 5,000 elephants says he is totally unrepentant after being singled out in report by an anti-trophy hunting group.

Ron Thomson worked in Africa’s national parks for six decades, and says that despite declining elephant numbers as a whole, managing populations within the limited space of parks is sometimes necessary.
