**After Palmer was named in late July as the hunter who killed Cecil, his Bloomington clinic and Eden Prairie home became protest sites, and animal welfare groups vandalised a vacation property he owns in Florida**

He will not sleep well, He will never know when his next patient has come there to hunt him. He is also under investigation by the US FWS so more will be heard in the future.

...expressed agitation at the animosity directed at those close to him and says he will be back at work within days.

This guy is a scumbag.

Hunting lions is such a Progressive amusement!

[Vendome]

At least he was Mane about it

[Eagles6]

Didn't know that we had such progressive anti hunters here on FR. Cecil was getting on up in years and lions that age are generally culled or are killed by a younger male to take the older male's females. As to his cubs getting killed, that's called nature.

Cecil was a normal lion. As far as I can see he was killed in a legal, ethical hunt.

[Bobalu]

I would not kill a lion for sport.

But then, Lions kill lesser creatures for sport.

In the final analysis, it was, after all...just a cat.

We have bigger fish to fry!

[sodpoodle]

Ponder the outrage over one aging, pampered dead lion to the millions of aborted babies who were not allowed to draw one breath of life.

Please forgive our insanity dear Lord.

Despised dentist Walter Palmer showed off his killer smile in newly-released photos of another illegal hunt—this one a bear slaying from 2006.

"The 55-year-old Minnesota man—who became reviled worldwide after he illegally bagged Cecil the lion just outside Zimbabwe’s Hwange National Park last month—was busted by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service agents for taking an illicit trophy in Wisconsin.

Palmer, a veteran bow hunter, shot and killed a huge black bear during a September 2006 trek through the wilds of northern Wisconsin.

Palmer pleaded guilty to a felony charge of making false statements in relation to the bear killing in 2008, officials said.

Decked out in camouflage gear, Palmer knelt next to the bear corpse, propped his bow on its lifeless body and posed with his prize in a photo obtained from the Wisconsin Department Natural Resources by ABC News.

The grinning Palmer had a permit to kill one black bear in one Wisconsin county, but the animal he shot was reportedly 40 miles beyond the county line.

U.S. Attorney John Vaudreuil said Palmer knew what he did was wrong and offered three guides on the hunt $20,000 to lie about where the bear was killed.

“He was lying to us,” Vaudreuil told ABC’s 20/20. “He was offering to pay, it turns out, about $20,000 to keep the others who were in the hunt, to have them lie, so that’s a fairly aggressive cover-up.”

But the guides didn’t lie.

Palmer pleaded guilty to a felony charge of making false statements in 2008, officials said. He was fined $3,000 and put on one year’s probation.

His latest trophy created a backlash that forced Palmer into hiding in the U.S. and have Zimbabweans pushing for prosecution."

Yes, there is (or was) a Halloween costume

[Desron13]

Hmmmm... He killed a lion. A creature that would typically rip you limb from limb and eat you. So the problem is what exactly?
