Watching "Wildlife SOS"They showed footage of lion hunters, and showed a lion getting shot. Doesn´t it just make you sick when you see the hunters smiling having their pictures taken with their "Prize", acting like they have accomplished something amazing? I seriously do not know how people can do this, I feel bad enough when I step on my dogs paw!! From the topic: Comments Post a comment in this discussion: 18 Aug 2009 09:58 When you hear about such things you realise just how little some people have progressed with regards to respecting animals. There really are a lot of people who do not regard animals as worthy beings and, therefore, have no problem taking their lives so cruelly. I also wonder how people actually work with/for these barbaric organisations? 16 Aug 2009 17:56 Member Removed this is another example of man proving his superiority, it is terrible and very,very upsetting. You would think that time had stood till in some circles, they are just inhumane and it shouldn´t be tolerated. I do not know how the cameramen could film it. People like those oafs make my stomach turn, they are cruel and calculating and they are COWARDS!!! 16 Aug 2009 12:02 Such people are sad in my opinion.....they call themselves hunters but they are not hunting!!!!. They pay ridiculous sum´s of money to fly out to some African Game Reserve where the animals are selectively and purposely bred to be shot (in an enclosed area) by a so called Trophy Hunter. The animal has no way of getting away and therefore,it´s doomed from the moment it´s born and put into the shooting reserve......that´s not hunting,that´s deliberately a sitting target and that is not sport (I hate all blood sports),that´s cheating!. The trophy hunter then get´s his picture taken with his kill and the animal butchered.....if he pay´s more money he can get to keep the animals mounted head or it´s hide,but it´s a horrid sport and one that sadly many people do not know or really think about. 16 Aug 2009 07:14 yes it does i carnt watch shows like that with out getting p---ed off |
