In some areas there is a surplus of them, as there are no natural predators. Drugging them, and transporting them*, is an expensive party, and often they cause chaos at the new site, as they are outsiders in an existing herd.
The whole wildlife industry these days relies on rich mutts with 'too much gun' spending $$$ on licenses for collecting 'trophies'.
Much of the time, that money goes back into conservation projects.
Doesn't make it right, and as i said above, i'd have qualms about capping Gerry the Giraffe.

* - a couple of years back, some local moron was transporting a few giraffes in a truck. Unfortunately, he didn't realise that bridge height restrictions applied to mammals as well as to trucks.
NOT a pretty sight.
