    Default Cecil the lions death.

    I think that is just a horrible thing, what do you think about that. He might as well killed him in a zoo, big bad hunter.Click image for larger version.

    this is a tough one most cat hunts in Africa are baited hunts and targeting certain Cats that are either causing issues with the public , very old animals (to help a younger cat take over a pride) .. this Case is very Fishy as the Guides alone only charged 50,000 on a hunt like this . these hunts are usually 2x that much and the guides are supposed to partner with a Park Ranger for the duration of a big cat hunt and they help to ensure you hunt the correct animal . It appears this outfit did none of the sorts , even though they had all the proper documents those can be forged and poaching is a huge issue in Africa .. untill further details are released and we know all , it is hard to call .. Sad indeed

    Gorilla?

    Step it up and go full human.

    :-D

    I hear we're a smart beast, and tracking and shooting one of us may be harder than it looks.

    I still want to know a good outfitter so I can shoot some dolphins on our coast. Nothing like a bottlenose head mounted on my wall to get the ole pheromones going.
