PC a--holes.
It is not illegal to hunt lions. It is illegal to poach lions.
While they are free to set their own business policies, there is no legitimate reason for an airline to refuse to transport legally-obtained hunting trophies.

However, Planned Parenthood executives are still welcome to fly.

legally-obtained hunting trophies.Trophy hunters should be limited to only hunting with a dagger. Give the animals a sporting chance.
I say "f" trophy hunters. Go hunting with a camera for cripes sake. This ain't the 1800's anymore.

Seems like the latest liberal cause celebre is the zeal to disallow any actions which would be construed as supporting hunting.
This Cecil the Lion story and the media coverage has become a parody of itself.

Any ban on dead baby parts yet?

How are they going to enforce this? Airport security scans luggage, but I don’t think the airlines themselves do so. Frankly, luggage and other restrictions are getting so ridiculous that I find it very frustrating to fly.

Most of those animals would cease to exist if they werent a lot of money to the hunters.

The problem is, it's just an excuse.
YOU may not like trophy hunters, but why join an hysterical public campaign to stamp them out?
You play right into the hands of the "animal rights crowd", who want to get rid not only of "trophy hunting" but all hunting, as well as draft animals, riding horses, dairy cattle, and even household pet cats and dogs.
"When they came for the trade unionists . . . " is not just a clever slogan. (I do not trophy hunt, but I do hunt deer, duck & dove and go to the occasional pheasant shoot. But I stand with my fellow hunters, period.)

Sorry, I have no respect for anyone who slaughters an animal just for the rush.

Thank-God our long national nightmare of allowing lion heads to be flown into this country is finally coming to an end.
Between this and banning the confederate flag it should be safe now to walk the streets at night in Baltimore and South Chicago.
