That is absolutely the worst case of alleged hunting violations I have ever heard of. Makes our PA redneck boys seem pretty harmless. If that is all true, what an outlandish disrespect for wildlife. How sad.

Kind of makes you wonder about motives, does it not?

Default is this one of the Morse family that owns the villages?

If this is one of the family, I say shame on him! Maybe his money has gone to his head!

Default Expensive Elephant

If you follow this link:

http://www.safaritrackers.com/wp-con...Rates-2011.pdf

you will find that the 16 day safari with permit for elephant will cost you about $47,000 plus the trophy fee of $25,000 plus the companion hunt rate of $12,900. Unfortunately, these rates do not include airfare, hotel accomodations, gratuities, air freight for trophies, entry Visa or departure taxes. It not only takes a BIG man to kill an elephant but also a very rich one also.

Time and again, people in The Villages and on this forum have said that what the Morse family does in its spare time is none of our business. That should include killing elephants.

Exactly. The continued viability of The Villages depends upon the Developer's integrity in structuring the sale of infrastructure and amenities to the Community Development Districts (which Districts the Developer controls at the time of sale).

We know who the posters are who think the Morse family is nice, and we know who the posters are who think they aren't nice.

If we have been on this forum for a year, we know who feels strongly about both sides. They are very predictable, those posters.

None of us have ever met the Morses in person, had them to dinner or been invited to their home.

So it is difficult to know who is right. There is a little bit of bad in the best of us and a little bit of good in the worst of us.

I like what I see around me. I don't see any dead elephants, so I can go on with my head in the clouds.

Silly Gracie...
