Got home tonight to find a pile of Facebook messages ranging from "You're a Monster" to "I hope ISIS kills you and your family". Didn't take too long to find a photo of me next to a tranquilized rhino in an article called "Americans Killed More Wild Animals Than Anyone Could Have Imagined" on www.thedodo.com. The author pulled the photo from a Facebook page - STOP Trophy Hunting NOW, and included my name and FB page .... Nothing like vile threats and anti-hunting slacktivism after a day's work ....

Already I was beginning to fall into the African way of thinking: That if
you properly respect what you are after, and shoot it cleanly and on
the animal's terrain, if you imprison in your mind all the wonder of the
day from sky to smell to breeze to flowers—then you have not merely
killed an animal. You have lent immortality to a beast you have killed
because you loved him and wanted him forever so that you could always
recapture the day - Robert Ruark

It's a pity that every click on the keypad these fools make doesn't send one dollar to a reputable conservation initiative like IAPF and they'd soon learn that you have to put your money where your mouth is if your opinions are worth having.
