drongoOutpouring of disgust as trophy hunter shoots sleeping lion

I was told that this was a canned hunt, captive raised lion was shot up with an animal tranquilizer called Special K, which basically put him in a semi conscious state. He was then planted on a dried out river bed so the lion would be in plain site with nothing to hide in, the hunter then walks around the corner and bingo, pop goes the weasel. What other male lion would be by itself and then sleep in a wide open place with no concealment out in the sun...this is disgusting and should be banned but when the PH lays out 25K on a guarantee hunt what else would you expect.
Who told you and how did you verify that what you were told was true?

Please re-read the post. Peter is the person claiming he has been asked to support machine gunning elephants.
I went back and corrected my post!

slim buttesTodd, what I'm saying is we all have the ability to besmirch, but we don't have too.
Besmirching solves nothing. As this thread has proven.

But then again this is a forum which expresses the views and opinions of many which makes it interesting.
My point is there are some who pick snippets of film and photographs and feel they can seek fame for this brief exposure. We need to fight back and raise our voice yet again.

waterratIn the course of my guiding in Alaska 5 sleeping brown bears have been taken and maybe an equal # of moose. Almost universally they down move an inch and die instantly.

SaeedWe are getting into the really silly territories now.
I would rather track an animal and shoot it before he even knows I am there.
Takes all the drama out of it.
I have always found all the silly idiots who say "I want the animal to know who is going to kill it".
And "I give the buffalo a choice of how to die" nothing but utter self glorification stupidity!
The antis, being so ignorant of anything to do with wildlife, make a fuss about this.
The brainless woman who wrote this is , is a perfect example of why journalism is dead!
No facts, but turning everything to feed her own sick agenda!

DCS MemberOnce again, we are arguing amongst ourselves. In the end, keep videos to yourself. Well, maybe not. I love watching Saeed’s videos. I assume they could be chopped up and made to look bad. Can you imagine what they would do with helo hog hunts?
