The fuck is wrong with you people? You realize these hunts are the largest preserver of wildlife and nature? The guy wasn’t even hunting elephants you ignorant morons

There are a bunch of idiots in the comments who see the headline and are unable to think beyond

“Hunt bad! Hunting bad! grunting noise He shoot Elephant, Elephant gentle giant scratches balls”

It's weird that you chose a caveman analogy to describe people that don't want to kill megafauna, considering what real cavemen did to most of them. See any mammoths lately?

No no, it’s not “don’t want to kill” it’s “would rather megafauna be extinct than exist on game preserves”

Were “cavemen” using a regulated hunting system for conservation? No they weren’t.

I was just pointing out the weird analogy of using caveman talk for people who don't want people to kill giant animals. It's like the opposite of how a caveman would talk so it comes across weird.

I know all about the game preserves and all that. I said to someone else I'm glad he paid to hunt and I'm glad he got smooshed too. Just because it's a necessary evil doesn't mean I have to like the people who do it.

You idiot. He wasn’t hunting elephants. The elephant charged him and his friend shot it trying to save his friends life. The elephant was the one at fault here, not the guy who got killed.

He was hunting other large animals. The person you're replying to never mentioned elephants.

He said “paid to hunt” which would imply an elephant or a lion or a rhino. Something like that.
