"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.

What if a group of men caught you and cut off half of your tongue? Would you then think carefully before speaking next time? Surely you would be doing a lot more thinking than talking.
Big Game hunting brings a lot of money into African countries, lifting many people out of poverty.
It’s highly regulated

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

I’d still like to kick his ars :-)
Agreed. Some African countries have figured out that you can allow controlled, managed big game hunting and can make a profit off the venture, to boot. I assume this was a licensed kill and is probably in line with the giraffe population management policies of the host country.
You can choose to see Abortion and hunting as morally equivalent, but I do not.
Give it up. If you were not raised in a hunting family or around hunters, you will never understand.

Like a fist bump?
talk to me when you are the being hunted...
Venezuela Zoo letting ALL animals in zoo starve to death NO food to feed them!!!!
As long as the count is accurate then no problems but it's sort of like pending on Rhino horn poachers to report the head count. The pic of a 12 year old next to the dead giraffe is like cheese to rats...

Do you speak from experience?
Ask the wussy what he thinks of killing defenseless babies in the womb.
Why, exactly?
Why didn’t her Daddy just buy the kid an OVER-SIZED STUFF GIRAFFE toy?
I bet that would have been better and guaranteed not to rot and stink in her bedroom.
“Didn’t some zoo kill (or let die) a giraffe lately?
Forgot the details.”
Well, I do not know about that but they also shot a gorilla in the Cincinnati zoo! they are uncaring, unloving beasts, aren’t they? /s
A sick child with sick parents.
Anyone who kills for fun has serious soul problems.
