I don't understand the outrage about him hunting a lion? The
story I saw said he paid guides to set up the opportunity to
hunt the animal. Shouldn't the guides be the ones in trouble?
Maybe I haven't seen the whole story.

What he did wasn't hunting. He lured a protected human friendly
big cat away from safe ground...Using meat strapped to the back
of their vehicle. Why would you need to lure something away from
safe ground? How did you miss that big GPS collar around it's
neck? You can't really say he didn't see it. I'm sure he did with
the spot light he was using.

After showing their expertise skill (they didn't kill it on the
first try) it evaded them for nearly fourty hours until they came
up on it and shot it. Beheaded and skinned it. Leaving it's
corpse to rott in the sun. They tried to destroy the GPS collar
too.

Considering it was tagged for research purposes, I doubt it was
only relaying coordinates to the researchers. It may have also
been relaying vital signs as well. If that's the case, I'm sure
the research team was told in short order by it something was
wrong when they wounded it with a bow. It didn't take them long
to locate the remains or the people responsible for doing the
deed.

He has a criminal record for illegal hunting already. This is
just another one he got caught doing. Who knows how many times he
skirted the law and killed something illegally without getting
caught.

He's not a diversion, imho, either. Planned Parenthood is having
financial crisis issues now and things are going to get worse for
them now too. Don't assume the lion is getting attention and
they're getting away with what they've done. There's plenty of
****ed off people for both issues.


The problem here is you're dealing with the village idiot.
Anyone that could post this when discussing saving lions
and other species from extinction, surely meets that criteria:


If that species is meant to survive, it'll survive. If it
eventually goes extinct then another species will replace it.
That's survival in the animal kingdom. We can try to help a
species survive, but I don't think if one goes extinct that it'll
spin the world out of control, either.

It's an unbelievably callous disregard for nature, especially when
every person with a pulse knows that almost all the cases of
animals approaching extinction around the world today are due to
man. And then she claims to be an animal lover. I'm sure Walter
Palmer does too.

Sadly, if your village idiot is the individual I think them to be,
I've had previous encounters with them myself and it doesn't get any
better. Ever.
