Maybe if people didn’t hunt them off in huge numbers and kill off their environment we wouldn’t be here in the first fricking place. And will someone answer my question? Why would you want to kill something you can’t eat? Just to hang it on the wall and show all your friends, as well as tell the internet how much you’re actually protecting the animals when everyone knows you don’t care at all?

I wish some of you would spend more time educating yourselves on how these hunts benefit protected wildlife. The money and culling of certain members of the species aids in increasing the population in the long term.


I think people are mostly appalled that some dude gets his kicks killing animals he has no intention to eat.

I don’t give two shits if he plans on eating it as long as somebody is eating it. I’m a trophy hunter and the meat is a bonus for me. Instead of filling all 5 of my tags every year I typically only kill one good buck and that’s enough to last me a year.

Its so sad that poor animal didn't have the chance to die slowly from starvation or disease over the next couple of years.
Busybody, naive idiots on Twitter and Reddit (some here, too) are so damn stupid. They think a natural death for these wild animals is dying in their sleep lol.

Wild animals die in one of three ways:
Starvation
Disease
Gored and ripped into pieces and/or eaten alive for a slow painful death

POACHING is the problem. not regulated hunting.

they get eaten. it may not be the hunter who eats it but they get eaten. a lot of the big predator hunts specifically target certain animals that are past breeding age or causing heavy damage to livestock.

Why don't you show us on the doll where the dentist touched you?

He hasn't done anything illegal. The only thing he's done is piss off New Jersey cat ladies.

I don't care about the kill, but do wonder if something like that is really worth 80,000 quid? I mean, c'mon....that's a lot of hookers and blow.

I suppose the protected wild ram wasn't as well protected as he needed to be.

Can you detail process for how that money is distributed to Mongolian villages?

The outfitter takes the best meat and feeds his next client with that so that they can experience that game meat. The rest of the meat goes to the outfitter's family/friends/local village. There is nothing wasted. The same thing goes on in Africa, NZ, Argentina, etc. I know people that have hunted in South Africa and while there they got to try zebra, ostrich, kudu, gemsbok, and so on.

I also know people who have hunted in NZ, had their meat processed into sausage and brought it back as a processed item.

I heard recently that there is a hope/concern that hunters are able to return post Covid. The money that is spent is critical to conservation efforts for a lot of animal species worldwide. Limited travel and slowing global economies have hurt those conservation efforts.

Guides, lodging, cleaning the animal, transporting the animal, mounting the head. A lot of villages depend on hunters like this for their livelihood.

I don’t think the 80k was just for the tag, it’s probably how much he spent on his whole trip. Some of these trips are weeks or even months.

Or maybe, people like you should stop being sheep to the shepherd that is the media and do some reading yourself.

They are telling you what they want you to believe so you will be angry at this guy. People hunt these rams every year. With the information they've given us, there doesn't appear to be anything wrong here. Now, maybe it will come out later that the guy had no permit when he did this, or shot a ram in a location where he wasn't supposed to be hunting, but until that time, the only "crime" he's committed is being a big game hunter.

If his name wasn't tied to Cecil the Lion, this isn't a story.



But actually doing a bit of research requires effort. I'd rather just be pissed off because the evening time news men told me to be pissed off.

Liberals are the strangest ducks in the flock


They get pissed about killing a ram or a sea turtle, but rally in support of killing human babies.

They get pissed at painting over a mural, but cheer when they paint over or destroy public property of statues they don’t like.

Get irate when they go into a grocery store and people aren’t wearing a mask, but make no mention of their outrage when their own are looting, rioting, and tearing America apart without masks on

They’ll shame people like Lady Antebellum into changing their name, and then get more pissed when they pick another name that is used by a black singer.


The best thing to do in my experience with liberals is just don’t concern myself with their childish rage. Like children, they have a short attention span and will move on to another outrage in short order.

Why would he post a pic like that knowing it was going to enrage the mob?

He didn’t post it, a friend and longtime hunting partner of his did, and it is being assumed that he was one of the other ones in the pic.
