I can't see the point of hanging dead animals on the wall either. It's downright creepy have those lifeless eyes staring out in space. Why can't these people just take a picture to show they saw the animal?
I have nothing against hunters who eat their prey, but I see no reason to shoot a giraffe. If this woman did this legally, though, people need to back off.
Don't blame her, blame the South African government.
Some posters in this forum would say humans have the right to kill/torture any animals we choose because we are HOOMANS and we are SOOPERIORRRR, dammit !
And yes, before any of those posters comes in here with the tired question: would you save your dog over this human being, the answer is HELL YES. IN fact, I hope that woman seriously dies in a fire.
I certainly hope you're not a meat-eater. If you are, you haven't evolved. You've simply subcontracted to keep your hands and conscience clean. Personally, I'd prefer to come from a family that hunted, and I sure wouldn't want to evolve out of it.
Now, killing giraffes, not such a great hunt. My stance is, you kill it, you eat it. If you're trophy hunting, find a new hobby.
I agree, but the local village feasted on the meat and got $15,000.00.
So it's a win-win....... for everyone but the giraffe.
Yeah, there's that.
