I hunt and use all the meat, both for myself and my dogs.
Article evidently written by a vegetarian - or someone whose only hunting experience is hunting cellophane-wrapped packages at the supermarket.
As someone pointed out, that giraffe was used to feed a village.
Why do think that an animal killed for a trophy is wasted and not used for food? You don’t have much knowledge about how it works.
Kudos for your comments. Okay, the giraffe fed a village, but that is most certainly not the reason it & other beautiful animals are killed. Killing for sport is the lowest form of a hobby a person can have. It says everything about a person’s character when they shoot an animal for sport. Congratulations dad, when your daughter is old enough to date a large population of wonderful young men will be repulsed by those photos.
How many people were fed just with the money she and her father spent after they arrived?

You’re an idiot.

Comma after date
Will that was enlightening.
I figured it would be. Idiots rarely realize that they are, in fact, idiots.
Someone has to tell them so. And, as one would expect, the idiot in question is in fact enlightened.
So go forth and idiot no more. No thanks necessary.
Good luck.

One does not hunt in order to kill; on the contrary, one kills in order to have hunted...
If one were to present the sportsman with the death of the animal as a gift he would refuse it. What he is after is having to win it, to conquer the surly brute through his own effort and skill with all the extras that this carries with it: the immersion in the countryside, the healthfulness of the exercise, the distraction from his job.
