Blond and perky Kendall Jones has caused an uproar with Facebook photos of her smiling alongside dead lions, leopards, zebras and rhinos. But the Cleburne, Tex., native says if anything, she's helped the animal population.
Pretty in pink. Deadly in camo.
Animal rights activists aren't pleased with a Texas Tech University cheerleader's hunting trips that have left trails of blood throughout Africa.
The pictures of her beaming beside dead animal carcasses have caused an uproar heard around the Internet.
Kendall Jones, 19, of Cleburne, Tex., has been uploading these controversial pictures to Facebook to promote her hunting career and hopes to host a TV show on hunting.
"I'd love to drop kick you into a lions’ den, see how you do without your gun," someone commented on a picture of her smiling over the body of a leopard she just killed.
Another disheartened Facebook user offered a more measured response: "No matter how you look at it, seeing people smiling over the dead body of such a majestic animal is just sad."
If she's aiming to please, she's missed the mark.
Jones, however, views herself as a conservationist and argues that hunting rare animals is counterintuitively the best way to ensure their survival.
"Hunters are the biggest conservationists there are," she said. "We want animal populations to grow and thrive!"

Chicks that hunt must not be common in Texas.

Not a big fan of hunting animals such as that, but she is right. Hunters support the conservation of animals much more than most.

She must have come down on the "black with white stripes" side of the argument.

I have no doubt Texas could weather that storm and fight there way back as far as Chicago before all being put down.

Why? She's partly right. If a rare or endangered species is being decimated by disease (like TB), then hunting that animal before it infects the others can be a way to ensure survival for the species.

The culture of the serially offended is outraged I'm sure.

She must have a rich mommy and daddy live up on Coconut Grove.

really is, my daughter went on a photo safari to Kenya last year, and they basically just come right up to the vehicle, not much "hunting"
