I went on one trophy hunt, and to say the least, I thought it was gross. There is really no skill involved in the hunt. The guide takes you to the area where they know the animal lives and puts you in the right spot for a kill shot with your weapon of choice. Not too much skill involved.
Now these people that are condemning this guy, I definitely see their point but when they start talking about the "noble" "pure" "majestic" animal I think they are being hypocrites. Many of these people I am sure are driving their car thru a Mcdonalds or eating a steak or pork chop for dinner. What about the "majestic" animal that was killed to put this food on their plate. Quite a double standard. Either all animals are majestic and should never be harmed or they are here on our planet as a food source.
By the way, many animals view other animals and insects as food sources. Hmmmm. Does that make these animals inherently bad. Aren't we just animals?
