For sure. This American Life (i think) did an interesting piece on the guy who was lambasted for doing a rhino hunt a few years ago. The details that were omitted from the general media was that when rhinos get too old, they try to kill younger more virile rhinos and auctioning off the hunt was a way for the local African government to raise conservation funds and take care of this rhino that was a threat to the rest of the endangered population.

Not saying all big game hunting is ethical, but hunting and conservation is an issue that it would benefit more people to be knowledgeable about, in my opinion.
