Plenty of elephants need to be shot for one reason or another.People should not shoot elephants. Sorry I just dont think they should and this guy is a jackass. This is why I dont give money to the NRA
Deer have been selected the same way for the same reasons, but come on 4 shots give me a break! He should've left it to his wife, since she has the pants in the family!Plenty of elephants need to be shot for one reason or another.
It is better to let a Westerner pay 40k to do this and have the elephant selected by the Game Warden, Preserve Biologist, veterinarian than have poachers do it at random or the GW shooting an elephant that needs to go at zero $$$ to the reserve.
And WLP has no business doing $100k safaris at all
The people actually paying for it Ackerman-Queen? publicists for NRA at the time claim he never paid a dime of anyone's money.What chaps me most about the entire elephant video is that crook MF using NRA money to pay for it.
Elephant hunting isn't exactly cheap.
Reminds me of the retards in northern NJ who got the black bear season shut down because they couldnt deal with the thought of someone hunting them. The bear numbers swelled so much that they were pouring into neighborhoods and chasing people out of their backyardsPlenty of elephants need to be shot for one reason or another.

One pissed off bull elephant can trample a bunch of africans as well as be an ornery bastard that will kill other elephants for no good reason. Happens with giraffes too. Westerners are by and large giant pussies today who watch too many disney movies and think you are walking into the fort worth zoo and shooting Dumbo. Its simply untrue. 40K will sustain an african village for a long time. Not to mention how they get nearly all the meat from the harvest
IMHO (and feel free to pile on if you wish) some hunters, especially deer hunters that I have observed in several states, including east Texas, ARE asshole morons, shooting road signs, bottles they leave broken for horse or man to step on and are doing a good job of ruining hunting, and gun ownership for all.No dude, you don't get to compare Deer to Elephants. Deer are dumb. Elephants are damn near, if not, sentient creatures. They have burial rights, multiple levels of communication including long range communication, self-awareness, tool-usage, art, advanced problem solving and organized societies that are so complex that sociologists are still studying them. They are probably more intelligent than 80% of the general public.
If an elephant needs to be put down you do it the same way you do a dog. Humanely and with dignity.
**** this guy. This clip may have set us back farther than any damn mass shooting ever has when it comes to gun rights because now it even makes hunters look like asshole morons.
It doesnt matter if you are emotionally attached to the type of animal. Its legal to hunt and helps humans feed and support themselves. Like Hoji said would they rather have 40k for someone to hunt an elephant? Or would they rather have elephants to stare at while they starve to death or their village gets trampled.This wasn't a pissed off bull dude. I understand killing a violent elephant just like killing a violent murderer. This wasn't it and stop trying to even compare it. The elephant they shot was docile and not a threat to anyone.
Why should they not? The money the hunts bring in support the other elephants and anti-poaching and many hunts are culls to keep the oldest and least healthy from taking resources away from the younger up and comers that are able to breed.People should not shoot elephants.
