I heard an interview with a conservationist from SA on the radio last night about this. Dude was almost in tears talking about the lion.
"It's just rich people with too much time and money. Their bored and have an ego to stroke, so they think a lion head would look great in their house. It's disgusting and sad." (paraphrase)
He implied pretty implicitly that these safaris constantly curtail the law to meet the demands of hunters. Made it seem like there's pretty much no legitimate way to do this, and shouldn't be.
