The only grounds to legitimately judge him on are whether or not he knew

he should pay that penalty for an illegal hunt, not be judged because he
used the same methods to hunt that other hunters have used for years.

Interesting situation. Who is responsible for the outcome in a situation
where guides were hired and the expectation was that they have
everything in order? Palmer isn't from Africa and probably had that
expectation seeing that he paid $50k for the hunt.

That is BS, he must know what he was doing, he is not a first timer.
That excuse is VERY, VERY weak to have a leg. Quote from his guide who
was charged, "I regret I did not stop him shooting that lion(Cecil}"
He tracked him into protected area to finish him. Why did they try to
destroy his GPS collar? I don't judge Palmer, I just don't like his kind.
