I'd much rather see Donald Trump Jr. shot by man named Moose in Maine.

Repetitive post? Was discussed in great detail just last week. Folks not even sure this was recent or under whose permit he got to hunt.

What are the chances that he eats any of it? Guy is a trophy hunter (people that kill just for fun are sociopaths).

He definitely killed it just to mount its head on a wall.

Or that he’s been putting in year after year like everyone else waiting for one?

He probably wouldn't even donate it.

He's a douche, but nothing wrong here.

I mean trophy hunting is kind of gross. It’s perfectly fine to hunt for food. It’s another thing to fly around the world killing exotic animals for fun, which is something Don Jr does. That’s something a sociopath would get enjoyment from.

I have no problem with people hunting for food or managing the population, but I’m 100% against trophy hunting and these sick people derive pleasure from killing animals.

I used to think like you do until I read more into the subject. Trophy hunting is the largest contributor to conservation efforts in Africa and is the #1 reason why the large game species haven't been poached to extinction.

The tags are granted for carefully selected past-prime bulls that are no longer able to breed. Taking these animals relieves some of the pressure on the remaining younger populations as there is less competition for food and resources.

None of the food is wasted in a "trophy hunt" as 100% of the kill is given to the local communities, those that have the highest need for this protein source.

There is also the financial aspect of these hunts which cost between 5 and 6 figures. This income stimulates the local economies, employs local guides and most importantly puts a monetary value on these game animals.

This alone is the number one reason incentivises the locals to manage these game populations opposed to poaching them.

I sure I he did this out of the kindness of his bleeding heart because he cares so much about all living creatures.

Yea, I definitely appreciate there is a positive aspect, but I really wish we as a society could do the right things purely out of the desire to do the right thing. Effing capitalism

What would you deem the right thing? Have the game ranger kill it for no cost and then have the African nation pay to have it butchered and distributed rather than have the large amount of money generated from a rich hunter cover all the costs plus more?

A+ photo of the guy. Perfectly sums up what a pompous dink he is.

In other news, I ate a pizza yesterday that I cooked myself using my own ingredients and my own oven. State your opinions accordingly.

On whose tag? And where did the meat go? We all know they wouldn't stoop to eating moose.
