Most of that stuff in the thread is legal. Doesn't make it any better IMO.

If you can't eat it you're a fricking a-hole. What if we took an African on a dog and horse killing spree?

Technically horse is food in some countries.

Either way, I don't feel like I should have any say over how someone spends their money legally. Doesn't mean I have to respect them though. I have a lot of respect for hunters who hunt responsibly and with a purpose. These big game assholes? Not so much.

Completely agree. And an elephant isn't even a hard kill. Might as well shoot at the broad side of a frickin barn.



I had no idea it was legal to hunt elephants anywhere.

Let me preface by saying I am no fan of safari hunts and will never do one despite being an avid hunter.


But y'all do know that those hunts donate a lot of food into the villages there and provides a good economy right?

Because killing shite for the fun of it is sadistic. I eat everything I kill. There's absolutely no reason to kill a lion or a fricking elephant.

An elephant is an easy target and it takes a POS to do that IMO.


you could eat Lion or Elephant meat. I would

Who the fook hunts a Giraffe?

Seriously, that seems pretty sick. Hunting a zebra would be up there as well. WhenI hunt it is small game because I can put it in the burgoo pot. Damn elephant could probably feed a whole damn village.

I blame the sick fooks who decimated the Bison / Buffalo in Merica in the 1800's. Think how much meat was wasted and how much poop was never pooped to fertilize the grasslands of the great plains.

The people in these photos have given more money to help fund wildlife conservation in Africa than all the bitchers and moaners combined. I have no interest in shooting a zebra, but frick the haters.

I agree with this. Anyone who spends time doing any kind of guiding sees a lot of people who give hunters a bad reputation, but those people probably have different values than I.

Does this apply to children who kill ants as well? Or does your logic only apply to creatures you deem worthy of protection?

We have an evolutionary right to do as we wish with the world around us until that day when nature deems us no longer fit for the top of the proverbial food chain.

Snakes arent large furry mammals and dont elicit that kind of conditioned response from people.

Our ideas about which animals are ok to kill for the sake of killing and which are not are completely arbitrary (and often illogical, as is the case with snakes and spiders who are far more useful than tigers and cheetahs). As with most things, humans as a whole are not nearly as rational and consistent as we like to think we are.
