If he was an authorized hunter he would have been hunting in the day and he would have been identified. Getting a lion permit is not like getting your deer tag. You get a permit for a certain lion in a certain area.

And it was on a privately owned nature preserve, not a place that allows hunting or even firearms from what I can tell.

I like it ground up and made into cat dogs.

Big cat poacher? Is that supposed to make a hunter sound bad?

Probably.

"Poacher" and "hunter" are not synonymous and shouldn't be used interchangeably in this story. Dude was a poacher.

Karma.

“I’m a firm believer and supporter of legal hunting whether for food or trophies.”

The lions left their trophy behind.

Preserve your right to arm bears.

The article didn’t say what he did wrong. It just labels him a poacher.

That's true! Maybe he was a chef or something...

“’It happened on the border of the Umbabat Game Reserve after dark and MAY have been on their reserve.

‘I cannot say if it was poachers”

In the future, place tabloid trash (pretty much anything from DM) in chat.

That reminds me of the of the old Roman Coliseum scoreboard:

Lions: 10

Christians: 0

But he wasn’t trying to kill the bears, so it wasn’t justice like this story. He was just goofy, wearing a suit and reading to the bears.
