Sometimes you get the buffalo.
And then the buffalo gets you.
So it goes.

In today's world wild game is worth a lot more than big game hunters.

The dead hunter was stalking the animal in question.

This "unprovoked" thing smacks of MAGA logic.

He had two guides. Is it hunting when the guide takes the client to the animal he is supposed to kill?

Real hunters find their own prey, shoot it, gut and skin it, and make sure the meat is used.
