Elephants in The New Yorker!
I suspect that I am in a truly tiny AR minority: subscribers to The New Yorker. The consistently superb writing gets me by the Lefty Doofus stuff easily.

I commend to all with an interest in elephants, and elephant poaching, Mr. Jeffrey Goldberg's article in the April 5 issue, entitled "The Hunted." Very well researched...deals largely with Mark and Delia Owens (Botswana and elsewhere). To my amazement, I found not so much as a hint of either anti-hunting or anti-firearm bias.

If you don't want to spend $5.99 on a magazine the politics of which you abhor, just about every public library will have a copy. It's worth the efort, I think.

Good hunting to all, and Happy Easter.

Hadn't seen that yet, but thanks for the heads-up.

The "New Yorker" is one of several periodicals that I've regretfully given up because of their political posturing. Thank you for the library suggestion. It's very helpful, as I refuse to fund Socialists.

No need to run to the library. Here's the full article:

The most interesting part of the article is about the North Luangwa, in Zambia.

Thank you, Sandyhunter. I should have thought to do that.

Boy howdy, I seem to wind up saying that a lot...
