Piers Morgan Asks 12-Year-Old Hunter, ‘What If I Killed Your Pet Cat?’ — and Her Dad Quickly Reacts

"Good Morning Britain” co-host Piers Morgan grilled 12-year-old trophy hunter Aryanna Gourdin Monday morning, comparing her killing of a giraffe to slaying her pet cat.

Gourdin, a Utah native, became the subject of heated controversy when she posted photos last week to her Facebook account of a giraffe, wildebeest and zebra she killed on an African safari.

“How would you feel if I came to your house one day, and I hunted down your pet cat, and I killed it and I then posted pictures of me celebrating the slaughter of your pet cat?” Morgan proudly asked the young girl. The pre-teen trophy hunter — clearly agitated by the question — struggled to find an answer, so her father stepped in, telling Morgan he was asking a “trick question” because the giraffe was not his pet.

Who wouldn't want to "talk to" Piers alone in a room for 5 minutes?

“Who wouldn’t want to “talk to” Piers alone in a room for 5 minutes?”

Only if “active sign language” was involved.”

My reply to Peers: “About the same as you’d feel if someone killed the baby in your daughter’s womb. Oh, wait, you’re OK with that...”

I dont like Piers one bit and boy did he ever mistep talking to a 12 year old in that manner but aren’t giraffes an endangered species? I am conflicted on this a little bit. It’s not like they’re like deer, coyotes, and wild boar which are plentiful.

Big Game hunting brings a lot of money into African countries, lifting many people out of poverty.

It’s highly regulated, and no one sneaks in and guns down endangered species. The hunts are sanctioned and controlled. The death of this giraffe does not move the species closer to extinction.

Yeah, rescind her humsnity because she likes to hunt. I’d rather have 10 or her to one of you.

If this girl and her family were hungry I’d understand her killing animals.

She looks like she very much enjoyed killing the giraffe. She seems to be enjoying her safari too.

LOL Africa will never be lifted out of poverty. The only people who could do that have either left the continent or were killed.

Piers Morgan has always been a reprehensible person. He’s frustrated that he’s no match for Trump, so now he’s trying to bully a 12 y/o girl. And losing!

Why would anyone want to talk to Piers?
If no one did Piers would soon ... disa-piers1

Seriously if he got no one to interview he would end up being a floor walker at something like “Grace Brothers”.
He could do a Mr. Humphreys with his eyes closed!

Didn’t some zoo kill (or let die) a giraffe lately?

Forgot the details.
