Sport hunting is DESPICABLE

​worldanimalnews.com/outrage-ensues-after-naomi-campbell-kyle-richards-post-goes-viral-exposing-photo-of-a-heartless-huntress-who-killed-a-majestic-leopard/

There are so many things wrong with this photograph, where do I begin? First of all, look at this idiot proudly holding the carcass of a leopard she obviously shot and killed. Her stupid smile full of pride is what ignites the most anger in me. Secondly, she's holding one of the most beautiful creatures on the planet, not only beautiful, but endangered. She's holding an ENDANGERED SPECIES like it's some kind of prize she's won at the fair. It makes me sick to my stomach to think that there are people out there who take pride in killing living creature sin this manner. What's worse, she probably paid a hefty fee to be able to come to this reserve and shoot this beautiful animal dead. Is it not sick to think that there is a place you can go where you can pay to have the opportunity to slaughter an endangered animal? What kind of world do we live in?

Celebrities shared this photo speaking out against sport hunting and it spread like wildfire. As with most cases of douches like this who post their happy selfies with corpses, the photo circulated and people cried out against sport hunting. Interesting, a large portion of the world disagrees and would like to see a ban on sport hunting entirely. There are of course those hunters who will argue up and down that it's their right and that the money from these slaughters goes directly towards conservation. That's about as dumb a statement as any I've heard and frankly, a lie used to fuel their ambitions. 

The facts are, these people aren't hunting chickens or goats, animals that are naturally abundant, they are paying astronomical money to hunt animals that are endangered. Lions, leopards, elephants, giraffes etc. Can someone explain to me how slaughtering endangered animals for trophies helps to conserve them? What an asinine assumption to make full of nothing but hypocrisy. Do you think that 20 or 30 thousand dollars you paid to kill one of these beauties is going to help conservation? I'd love to sit and have a debate with one of these assholes about this. I imagine it would end up being much like when a meat eater tries to defend eating meat, they'd likely resort to name calling and repeatedly announcing that it's their right. It's our right to breathe air and drink clean water, those two things don't sit in line with killing endangered animals. It's time to put an end to sport hunting and everything that it stands for.

The fact of the matter is, we are facing the possibility of elephants going extinct because of black market ivory. We've seen species of rhino go completely extinct within the past 2 years, these are facts. Your "conservation" efforts are a load of shit. All these people care about is killing things with their big shiny guns. I say, ship them all to an island and let them hunt one another. 

If you have the time, contact the Safari Club International by following the link at the top of the page to World Animal News where they've included the contact info. Let them know that their proposed methods of conservation are hypocritical and ridiculous. it's time to BAN SPORT HUNTING!

HAPPY VEG
