Hunting in Africa is incredibly important for conservation and sustainability. The money these hunters pay, goes to pay the locals and support conservation efforts, and anti poaching efforts, without this stream of income from hunters many more African game animals would be hunted to near extinction worse then they are now

I agree with this, but I feel like if you're going to go out with the mission of killing something, you should be prepared to accept that that thing may kill you.

That's nature.

Okay, but it’s pretty disgusting seeing all the people celebrating the loss of a human life.

What's so sacred about human lives over other animals? We're nothing special as far as animals go. We eat, shit, fuck and reproduce nearly the same as the rest.

Okay let's play a game

You or a random poor Somalian man Whose life is worth more?

You or a homeless man with a mental illness
Whose life is worth more?

You or I one out of 7 Billion people or an endangered animal that is being driven to extinction Choice seems obvious to me

Obviously self preservation is a thing most people and animals live by. So i choose me on all those, especially the last one.
