Tell me. I'm asking you. What is the exact difference between "trophy hunting", (which you detest, and claim to be "unethical"), and "hunting", (which you claim to support)? I've given you the definition per Webster of "hunting", which I'll repost here in order to keep things clear:
": the activity or sport of chasing and killing wild animals."
So please educate me. How does this differ from what Palmer did, or what you refer to as "Trophy Hunting"? All of your deflecting gibberish aside, establish some clarity here, and prove your point. What is so "ethical" about hunting, that is not "ethical" about Trophy Hunting? You've done an impeccable job repeating yourself. Now I'm simply asking you to define yourself.
They are the same thing. All of your silly "ethical" vs. "non ethical"...... Hunting vs. trophy hunting is the same. What is the difference between killing a deer in Colorado, and mounting it's head for the fun of it, or doing the exact same thing to a lion in Africa? NOTHING! You've been had my friend. You yourself cannot distinguish the difference in the definition. Because there is none.

Google: "trophy hunting" …
"Trophy" hunting is a subset of "hunting" … Not ALL hunting is for "trophies" …
(duh) …
But, again …
Thank for once again indicating that you regard "ethical" questions as … "silly" ...
"Trophy" hunting is a subset of "hunting" … Not ALL hunting is for "trophies" …
Bull$h!t. Ever hear of the term, "A Trophy Deer".... "A Trophy Elk"? Of course not, because you don't hunt. So on top of being totally unknowledgeable on the subject, you're a LIAR as well. As I said, you've been had. Any animal hunted can be a "trophy".

Personal insults … How charming …
But, as to your bold assertion that "any animal hunted can be a "trophy" …
uh huh …
Just ask any taxidermist … Why, they stuff and mount squirrels and rabbits as well as Boone and Crockett elk … !!! The hunter who bags a two pound squirrel proudly poses for photos with it … !!! uh huh … And enthusiastically shows the photos to ALL the hunting buddies, who roundly congratulate him on such a fabulous success … uh huh …
And … (Really, I'm not making this up …) … Do you realize how many "trophy" hunters actually prefer takinga two year old doe over a ten point buck … ??? … uh huh … Why, any "trophy" hunter will have that doe mounted and displayed in his/her den … uh huh ...
(But … Again, again … Have you recently changed or gone off your medication … ??? I mean, seriously, friend … You seem to have some *issues* …)

Stop crying. No "personal insults". Just facts. You continue to dance around because you cannot define the difference. I've asked you to for the last several posts, and you cannot. You continue to post more gibberish. I'll ask you yet again:
What is the difference between a hunter in Colorado taking a "Trophy" deer or elk, or Palmer taking a "Trophy" lion in Africa? Explain how is one "ethical", while according to you, the other is not?
Do you realize how many "trophy" hunters actually prefer taking a two year old doe over a ten point buck?
Once again you continue to prove your ignorance, as well as being a total liar about ever hunting. Does are taken on a separate tag. "Preference" has nothing to do with it. Several states have a separate doe season. If a hunter is using an Deer Reduction Zone license in a Deer Reduction Zone, the hunter must take an antlerless deer with an Deer Reduction Zone license prior to taking an antlered deer. Again, "preference" has nothing to do with any of it. Anyone who has ever hunted big game would know this. You don't because you've never hunted anything. Let alone something that was higher than your ankles when it stood up.

Well, again … You are drawing a contrast as if it is a notion I have suggested …
I object to TROPHY hunting in general, whether it is in Africa or the Colorado Rockies …
But, again …
TROPHY "hunting" is not the same as "hunting" …
Look it up …
Google: "trophy hunting" … (Why do you fear doing that … ???)
TROPHY "hunting" is not the same as "hunting" …
Look it up …
I did..... And posted the definition. They are both the SAME! But as of now none of it matters. You've proven without a doubt you're a liar, and don't have a clue of what you speak.

But, seriously …
So … You claim that a hunter who takes a two year old doe is as likely to have her head stuffed and mounted as if (s)he had taken a ten point buck … ???
That dentist guy would have been just as happy to have shot a young lioness -- or one of her cubs … ??? All he wanted was to shoot "a lion" -- ANY lion … ???
