Would have liked to have seen this hunter chase down this lion
If the lion had caught him he could have eaten well for months.
Ironically lions seem not to be that keen on the taste of human flesh, rarely are human casualties eaten by lions, or leopards for that matter, unless the cats are on the point of starvation. They rarely see us as prey, just interlopers/rivals to be eliminated or just scared off. The fat scumbag might attract hyena and vultures but would mostly feed invertebrates, larvae and maggots - appropriate really. Best advice if one of Africa's magnificent apex predators is charging your way: stand still - running only ensures you'll die tired.
On closer inspection, there's not a mark on that lion's face ergo it was captive raised - punch ups are daily occurrences for leo leo - the blood thirsty coward can't even claim to have bagged a wild animal - whatever there is beneath contempt is where he and his ilk are to be found. Any Brit found to have been perpetrating such abominations ought to have their passport cancelled and be decline readmission to the country.
Also the fact that his shot definitely didn't kill the lion. Infact it likely went nowhere near. The 'professional Hunter' and his team of locals would have fired alongside him and don't the killing. This man has paid a lot of money to pretend to kill a lion while someone else does it for him then pose for a photo and claim the credit.

Not that it's really relevant. As long as scumbag's like him are willing to pay then wild animals like that beautiful beast will die.
I can't look at that photo without my blood starting to boil. Saw another one on my twitter feed earlier with a guy holding up an endangered wolf after a hunt.
Brings out the absolute Neanderthal in me and would like nothing more than to see our fat fuck of a friend up there be beaten the shit out of

Sorry, just can't hold back when it comes to this
I hear you. I'd give that fat knacker a lion costume and a 20 minutes headstart before I load "old Betsy" and look for the tubby prints in the ground

Just head for the nearest fast food outlet, you'll soon catch up with him.

It is said that these "hunters" pay a hefty price to hunt these animals which keeps the locals in work and food, and away from poaching.
Which is bollox. Far better to pay the locals to preserve the wildlife and promote tourism
Yep it's a bullshit argument. Using the same start-up capital they could have built a game/nature reserve which allows the animals to live in what is relatively close to their natural habitat and could run sight seeing safaris. The tourists take photos and see the animals and scenery as they should be seen.
Places like these have been making more money than hunting reserves over the last 10 years.
I'm so glad I'm not on Twitter Facebook any of that social media. Trouble is what happens is someone will say did you see the tweet by Katie Hopkins and I go and look at the tweet.
No Sympathy with Trophy killers, people to hunt to eat is a whole different thing but people who kill animals for fun are utter wrongings.
what about the culling of animals?
The culling of animals generally needs to be done because we've screwed up the local ecosystem. For example, the Norwegians killed a lot of their wolves so the deer population exploded, the wolves being the deers' only natural predator. Then they had to cull the deers. If they'd left the wolves alone they wouldn't have had a deer problem.

Similar to the experience in Yellowstone Park where wolves were reintroduced a few years back, as a natural culling process to the increasing numbers of Bison/buffalo in the first national park.
Talking about Bison, it is estimated that there were 30plus million bison on the American Plains in 1800. By 1889, a formal census showed that there were just 391 left! Today the numbers are about 50k, some 15k of those in Yellowstone and Custer State Park, South Dakota. The others are wild, in North Western states such as North and South Dakota. A few years back Bison were re-introduced to Indiana.

I think you are right about humans and ecosystems, but I wonder if your example is correct. I did a bit of googling because I was interested in what you said, but it seems that there are less that 70 wolves in all of Norway. Could they really do that much damage to a population of 30,000 reindeer. Though they do kill 1500 to 2000 head of livestock in a year. As recently as last September there were plans to 'cull' (I hate that word) a further 47 wolves. Would they really do that if they were getting over-run by deer? I'd be interested if you are anyone else has more information on this. As I say, all I know is what I just googled.

As a result there's a lot more beaver in Yellowstone.

I knew nothing about this til I read it here, but I would observe that the Norwegians of course kill whales. I will ask my buddy who lives there, he's Swedish and grabs any opportunity to slag them off.

Just who does he think he is, caring so much about animals... what a cunt
