Of course. They charge $20 000 from a fool from US to kill a lion which would die of old age in a matter of months.

...oh, if it's a lion it's abhorrent, if it's some random cattle or chicken it's just fine...

I'd like to see a lion devour one of these scumbags. Just my opinion. If you don't like it go pound sand.

Thats pretty sick and demented if you think about it...they pay large amounts of money to go out and kill something that is easy to kill,( no challenge or risk).


It sounds like they get a thrill out of killing and will pay to experience that! I wouldnt feel safe with those people around anyone I care about!

Would it better if they ate the lion?

If you don’t eat what you shoot, then you’re a scumbag.

If that was a sick lion, it should be allowed to die naturally and become food for other species.

Besides, Where is the sport in killing a sick animal?

You shouldn’t kill ANYTHING that you won’t or can’t eat. Ever...unless it’s for your physical protection.
