dc.description This paper presents an economic assessment of Namibia’s trophy hunting industry for the 2000 hunting season. Based on expenditure data and tourism sector assumptions, the study estimates that trophy hunting generated approximately US$11 million (N$80 million) in direct spending. Total direct expenditures are projected to reach between US$18–21 million (N$128–144 million). Gross value added is estimated at US$5.6 million (N$38 million), rising to US$8.7–9.8 million (N$60–67 million) when total expenditures are considered. The findings underscore the significant contribution of trophy hunting to Namibia’s tourism sector and the broader national economy. en_US
