“This guy basically went hunting for Lassie and killed her to satisfy his sadistic ego and cut off her head as a trophy.”

No he paid $55,000 for the permit to hunt lions. He got a lion.

Do you only care because this lion was famous?

I think anyone who would pay $55,000 to kill a single animal is a psychopath.

I have to laugh when they say how famous this lion was.

Four days ago, these people who are so outraged had no idea who Cecil the lion was. And some of these people don’t even know where Zimbabwe is. Yet they are so outraged about alleged violations of Zimbabwe game and hunting regulations. A subject which a week ago they had no knowledge about and no interest in.

It’s been funny how the media goes into overkill saturation coverage of some stories.

This story has no impact on anyone’s lives. The hunting and safari business in Africa has no impact on any of our lives. Yet this story, fueled by a media frenzy surrounding it, has become big international news. I just don’t understand.
