This is another one of my causes. I dislike trophy killing. This was the sport killing of all animals -- 2 baby elephants. This is murder. The hunters should be shot.

Hunting should not be considered a sport but a obsessive compulsive disorder.

I am with you Granny. I cannot stand to see any species on earth in pain. I hurt along with them.

I think that if they want to kill animals they should only be allowed one knife and a small one too. See how they like them apples. And if the animal kills them then just too bad.

How about no knife

I think if they are being protected, their fear of humans in a nature preserve is not as high. These animals are killed with little resistance because it is like being in a zoo. I see NO advantage to allow them to be murdered when they are supposed to be protected.

I really don't think we need to kill any species.

@AntaresRose I realize My comment did not come across as I intended it to so I deleted it .Sorry

I have always said that if you really want to impress me, heal what needs to be healed, that which is sick needs to be cared for care for it.

Hunting is not a sport, in a sport both sides should know they’re in the game.

I blocked one of the most horrid comments I have received.. if you are not bothered, it is your business.

While I don't condone trophy hunting, I am somewhat ok with it because they usually pay fees to do it. Those fees (are supposed to) fund conservation efforts for the rest of the species. Whether or not those fees are being properly used is another story.

I did just read the article though, they are definitely not baby elephants.. If what he said was true, that it was in a designated safari area, then he most likely paid a large sum of money that should go into preserving the safari. I love animals and I could never kill an animal unless it was in self defense or for food.. hell, I am even the weirdo you'll see moving worms off a sidewalk after a rain so they don't get stepped on. That said, I am not upset by this. They weren't babies and I can guarantee they paid a lot to hunt in a hunting designated area. I'd be upset if I found out the safari wasn't using the fees they paid properly.

The problem I have with what you have posted is that it puts a finite price on every animal. Once the price is met all the animals are gone, then what? I have friends who hunt, they are careful they follow the law, pay the fees and eat what they kill. One has gone hunting in past years but has not found what can be taken.

That is actually not true that it goes to conservation efforts. It is just profit for the owners of the game park. Some of the animals are just bread to be killed by these people.

I can't even look. And to think there are people who think somehow that it's okay?

I understand hunting so that animals don't have to starve to death to control a population that humans have knocked out of balance.

But trophy hunting? It's barbaric.

people are sick

These bastards are sociopaths.How anyone can kill an innocent creature like this is beyond belief .

They're just innocent babies. The whole bunch of elephants will mourn the loss. One of the two looks like a newborn. The people who sell these animals for murder are just as guilty. Money gets waved under the noses of these poor people and they sell out the animals they are hired to protect!

Shooting them is far to lenient.

These lowlifes should be hunted by use of bow and arrows

It IS murder. But, there are no species that are superior or somehow better than another species.

All Earthlings are equal.

They all matter.

cow = elephant = whale = dog = sheep = horse = pig = rat = rabbit = cat = owl = chicken ....etc.

Yes, all animals matter. To actually be proud of killing another animal is beyond my understanding.
