A big game hunter and former beauty queen is facing backlash after she claimed in a television interview that hunting helps with anti-poaching and conservation efforts.
Oliva Nalos Opre, who won the title of Mrs. Nebraska in 2003, spoke about her hobby on the U.K.-based show “This Morning” via satellite Wednesday from her home in Montana.
The mother of four told hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby she’s killed about 100 species of animals in six different continents.
Her Facebook bio says she’s hunted in Benin, Cameroon, Ethiopia, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Argentina, Mongolia, France, Spain, Romania, New Zealand, Mexico, Canada, and throughout the United States.

You should call him a weenie and not invite him over for bbq.
Typical loonies in the UK...a few days ago, I shot an alligator in my pool...alligator meat is good...
And a GOOD Hunter IS a Conservationist and don’t Waste the Meat or anything else from a Kill.
He’s a professor at a University- need I say more?
My sympathies.
After Hurricane Hugo (with power out) a neighbor cooked up a huge batch of alligator tail from his defrosting freezer. (He was from Louisiana.) Breaded, deep fried, layered in a box with raw onion rings. All the flavors kind of steamed together. Of course, we brought a bunch of thawing steaks. Other neighbors brought stuff. Darn fine meal. The alligator tail was wonderful...a very pleasant surprise.
I could not agree more.
I went to Tom Brown’s survivalist camp in NJ a few years back. I learned a lot of things that I should be practicing now!
If you can make it out there...highly recommended. :)
I totally agree. Please see my other posts on this thread. Gotta get to sleep, have a long day of medical procedures tomorrow.
Night everyone!

NJ !!! Yeah that place requires you go to “Survival Camp” just to be in the State boundaries.
We moved out of NJ in 1969 to Houston. I was only 8. I’ve done My “Time” in NJ.
Waste not, Want not.
