The part that said trophy hunters target Cheetahs, Giraffes, Grey Parrots and Chimpanzees told me all I needed to know. While a few cheetahs and giraffes are shot each year, Grey Parrots and Chimpanzees certainly aren’t, but facts are apparently unimportant to the writer of the article. | |||

My impression is the write is an idiot with an agenda, and does not like what the scientists are saying. | |||

Ah yes, "The Daily Wail" once the morning read of the sensible Tory housewife, now just another idiotic and agenda riddled rag.... l'm afraid the Times is beginning it's steady slump down the same sorry road. | |||

True scientists have ALWAYS seen the benefit that hunting provides to conservation...especially via habitat provision. It is only unethical hunting they oppose. Just go to the Lion Conservation page and read The Definition of a Huntable Male Lion. Hunting orgs and hunters in general shun collaborative work with true scientists at their own peril. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J.

Sooo, politicians, comedians, and bimbo girlfriends support a ban on legal, well-regulated hunting, while scientists do not support a ban! | |||

Lane, you are correct, to an extent. Some of these scientists are too wedded to the ARA types and anti hunting agendas. Many refuse to stop themselves from either being misquoted or make deliberate statements that are deceptive relating to hunting. Recall that there was much scientific blather about “Cecil” that only once the whole furor died out did they admit to him not being in the park, and much of the misstatements corrected. We should support those who do not play games with the antis. I don’t expect them to necessarily participate in hunting themselves, but they should refrain from stating how much they rather it wasn’t done. | |||

Don’t disagree with anything in that Dr. But...I will add that there was untoward conduct associated with the Cecil incident from the hunting side. Thus, there was blame all around there. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J. Lane Easter, DVM A born Texan has instilled in his system a mind-set of no retreat or no surrender.

An article written by the authors of the report can be found @ https://phys.org. It was posted late last week. The authors of the report were quite honest. Even the ones uncomfortable with trophy hunting agreed that it was generally a good thing for animal populations.
