Interesting article on the topic. Be sure to look at where it was published...

You don't usually hear pro-hunting articles out of a far-left college like Berkley. Good article, keep up the good work Berkley...yeah, right!

A guide was killed in the same park by a lion two days ago in front of tourists, figured I'd let you guys loose on this one:

I read about Nxaha yesterday and expected several comments on here. I was disappointed,

Lions are lions and do what lions do.

The guide of a group of tourists tracking fresh lion spoor is ridiculous. About the same as walking up to a grizzly in Yellowstone.

Tourist dollars make sane people do stupid things!

This is badass & well worth the 16 min. The first five minutes is an overview of everything that's connected to the Cecil incident & what's happened since, but after that he gets into some really great info on hunting & conservation.

No worries. If you can author a 97-post thread about which rifle to use in MT, I have much more faith in your ability than mine to spread the word.

Bahahahaha. That made my night.

Also, Shane Mahoney always deserves two posts because he's practically the Chuck Norris of conservation.

As much as it pains me to dredge this back up:

Zimbabwe park warns that it is now over-populated with lions

I am more than willing to help with the cull and will even use my ammo. Saving the Zimbabwe government some $. I will be in Africa in 8 weeks.

It's almost as if all of those bloodthirsty, anti-wildlife, redneck hunters, that always say "hunting is conservation " are correct.
I'm sure non consumptive "conservation" organizations will step right up and cut a check to the Zimbabwe government.

Cecil's son Xanda has now been murdered. So sad.

One headline I saw called it a cub...he was 6 years old.

[beginnerhunter]

At least the researcher that collared him said the hunter did everything ethically and called him "one of the good guys".

 

[schmalts]

They need to wipe out the family tree so we don't have to listen to the whining in the future

That was CNN. They also said a few weeks ago we should stop eating fried potatoes.
Trump is right. FAKE NEWS.
