Trophy-hunters from Britain legally killed and brought home the remains of nearly 500 monkeys and baboons in 30 years.

According to the Campaign To Ban Trophy-Hunting, around 100 dead bodies were imported into the United Kingdom in 9 years.

The Campaign To Ban Trophy-Hunting found that hunting firms encourage customers and trophy-hunters to kill baboons and monkeys with arrows and bows.

A report was released by the Campaign to Ban Trophy-hunting, it was based on the statistics that were released by Cites (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species).

The report showed the number of deaths that were racked by trophy hunters from the UK. It showed that trophy hunters killed 383 baboons and 111 monkeys legally from the 1980s to 2017.

The Campaign To Ban Trophy-Hunting also found that eagles, whales, parrots, otters, and chimpanzees were also hunted in Africa and other places.

The report showed that wealthy trophy hunters from the United States killed parakeets, sloth bears, trunks, elephant tusks, and captive lions.

The numbers of animals that have been killed by trophy hunters in different countries have risen in the last couple of years.

The numbers increased by 216 percent in Canada, 40 percent in Austria, and 56 percent in Belgium.

Number declines were seen in Norway, Spain, and Denmark.

It is reported that from 2008 to 2017, trophy hunters from the United Kingdom imported 98 primates that includes chlorecebus monkeys, chacma baboons, and yellow baboons. They were brought in from South Africa, Zambia, Mozambique, Botswana, Ethiopia, Zimbabwe, and Namibia.

The study also showed that trophy hunters also traveled to kill critically endangered animals such as wild cats, lynx, wolves, jaguar, black rhino, and polar bears.

Trophy hunters even targeted the scimitar-horned oryx, which is listed in the extinct list of the IUCN.

The Scimitar-horned Oryx is being bred for sport in some private hunting ranches.
