The Namibia Ministry of Environment and Tourism is well-known for catering to trophy hunters. In 2015, Corey Knowlton, a Texas man, bid $350,000 at auction to kill an endangered black rhino in Namibia. He is a serial big game trophy hunter. Black rhinos are critically endangered due to trophy hunting and poaching. There are less than 5,000 black rhinos left on earth. If the killing doesn't stop, they are projected to go extinct in 6 - 10 years.
