Poached in Africa? Get a grip. I used to live in Africa. The definition of poaching changes hourly, depending completely on the whims of corrupt officials.

Sadly the dentist simply paid too much, or not enough, to the right people.

As far as I know any kill by local law has to go to the local village’s...

He wasn't poached, the property in question where the lion was hunted is "Antonette", which incidentally was legally owned by Peter Johnston /Rosslyn Safaris.

If you know anything about hunting with bait, which I suspect you don't, you would know that such bait is intended to bring in game, not a specific animal.

And its unlikely there was any sign saying "This Carcass is for Cecil only, all others keep away" ..........

Virtually every predator hunt in the U.S. will incorporate either bait or dogs or both and there is no guarantee that a specific animal will show up.........

If the lion was poached that is the only crime. Not like it hasn’t happened before or will happen again.

There will never be another media run such as this over a poaching story again unless it’s another rich white male doing the taking.
