    The level of depravity it must take for someone to spend tons of money and take the time and hassle to fly halfway across the world, go deep into nature, and kill some majestic and innocent animal. I cant say publicly what i think should happen to these people.

      And when the animal kills them, claim it’s a tragedy when getting killed by your prey happens all the time in nature especially to apex predators who hunt large animals.

      You played nature’s game, bought cheats, and still lost. No one should feel bad for you.

      Its not even a fair fight. The moose doesnt have projectile weapons.

      They should fight it naked as god intended.

      I don’t even see what they get out of it. If I were a big game hunter, I’d be hunting that shit with a spear and maybe something like a sling or javelin. We’re fighting to the death! I would want that lion to have a chance at killing me since I would be trying to kill it.

      What these fuckers actually do is setup half a mile away, scouted by some safari team, after driving out there that afternoon, and shoot the poor animal with some godawful monstrosity high powered rifle. Then they think they look cool posing with the dead animal on social media.

      Really wish we could declare all hunting to be poaching and make it legal to kill poachers on sight.

        Its a form of Imperialism. These types of things are illegal in most places but people from the imperial core flex their wealth to make some areas legalize it so they can go play out their fantasies of killing big animals there. Which destroys local ecosystems. But they dont live there so who cares right? Theres nothing wrong with hunting for food. Hunting for sport is the issue. And when hunting for food it should be done sustainably. Killing animals after theyve had a chance to breed, and their young are independent for example. And in small numbers.
