Cecil the Lion

What no thread about Cecil? Horrible cunts.

What say you people? Is it OK to kill animals for kicks and stuff um on a wall?

Whichever way you slice it this horrible fucker is a cunt isn't he? Luring it out into the open, shooting it with a bow and arrow then letting it suffer for 40 hours or whatever it was before chopping it's head off. You've got to be a proper wrong un to want to do that.

One tit bit that I read in the fall out was about conservation and that this dentist twat had spent shit loads hunting soooooooooo in a way had kind of earned the right to kill?

In the same way that Jimmy Saville had earned the right to fuck kids I think.

Is this thread going to be anti-hunting in general or anti-trophy hunting?

That kind of depends on others to be fair. Personally, I don't have a problem with people hunting and eating what they kill. Killing shit for sport/kicks is different though. And luring a collared animal out of it's sanctuary to kill it in the way this fucker did is a whole different game all together.

I can understand not seeing a collar on a lion as the mane could obscure the view.

I can understand trophy hunting CAN bring in lots of money to certain rural regions especially in Africa.

That said, I don't appreciate hunting just for killing something. I really, really enjoy cooking with meat harvested from hunts and I enjoy hunting as a means to do that. I believe hunting is morally better than getting food from the grocery where the animals have been locked up, bred for slaughter, and in some cases treated very poorly. Culling an animal is not an easy task (for those that have souls), it is bitter sweet to know you've taken a life with your own hands to sustain your life/feed your family. Hunters also do a lot for nature conservation, much more than hippies and yuppies, because hunters protect WHAT they hunt but also WHERE they hunt.

Predator hunts (unless you have a problem population) IMO are not the most helpful. #1 The meat is not as good, #2 predators have their place in the food chain and it's needed. Bear meat is ok...I mean it has to be cooked slow and low so the sinew melts down, otherwise you end up with really tough meat that seems like it's tied together with rubber bands. I've had Bobcat before, that was decent enough, but other than that what other predator would you want to eat?

Any person feeling a want or desire to kill essentially a park mascot or any other animal in that fashion needs his head pulled through his own arsehole.
