Villagers and Elephant photos

Folks,
Got this email from Roland at Trophy Shots and thought I would pass it on to you guys as requested. Looks like he is on a mission... and a good one.

I want to start a "campaign" to help change the perspective the anti's have with trophy hunting/hunters.

I need to collect photos from "elephant hunters" primarily---photos that show the villagers at the carcass

working hard to process the downed ele...and often standing in line in the frenzy to get there share of the much needed protein/meat.

Many anti's never get to be exposed to this...I need to start showing this type of stuff!!! ;-)

Could you send me something?

And also, could you make mention of this on AR and that folks can simply UPLOAD them to my website...just give Country/Village or Location/Year.

These will be trophy shots of another kind(!!!)...The public needs to wake up!!! ;-)

I need to take a stand and inform/educate them.

On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

Not sure this will have the intended outcome. The issue is not wastage of meat, it's killing beautiful animals who have names and families just like us.

This might begin to border on poverty porn.

If I had those photos I would post them. As such, I post photos of plains game entrails hanging from fences, drying so the locals can dine.
