A professional game hunter has been trampled to death by an elephant while leading a hunt with an American client in Zimbabwe.


 
Absolutely gutted! Just one of them! Here's hoping that the client, support crew and all others who murder animals for "sport" meet a similar end.

I just hope the elephant escaped serious injury.



 
GREAT NEWS, PLENTY MORE STORIES LIKE THIS WILL KEEP ME BUZZIN,,,,,GET IN THERE NELLY FECKIN GEE IT EM
 
Oh ffs ay no more nellies killed some hunters yet, cmon get em.
 
Just for those of you that don't know, billions of animals are getting killed each year. A lot more horrifically and cruelly than hunted animals. It's great that everybody is siding with the elephant on this one, but a shame that most people can't make the connection that a life is a life, pig, cow etc, all sentient beings that don't want to die.
To anyone with the balls to watch it, and I'm sure few of you will, look up the documentary Earthlings. Not sure if it's on You Tube still, but shouldn't be too hard to find.
 
I just hope that bitch who posed with the dead Giraffe the other day is next.

Vile people. All deserver death. Slow and painful ones. Trampled by an elephant is probably too quick. I'd have them all bummed to death by a Gorilla.

There is a huge difference between the slaughter of animals bred for meat and hunting wild animals for fun. The first is a necessity for food, the latter has no purpose.

Death is with us every day. There will be thousands of them in your garden this spring and summer. It's just part of Nature, but that does not mean it is something to be used to entertain.
 
LOL Deano dude i will never ever ever go anywhere near the Gorilla's at Dudley zoo this year we tend to do, LOL

Necessity? :22: It is not necessary to murder animals to survive, no animal has died on my behalf for a very long time.

At least an animal that has died through hunting has lead a free life, the vast majority of the animals you murder to eat have lead a life of captivity and cruelty before slaughter.

Is there that much of a difference apart from not having to get your hands dirty?

I have never ever murdered an animal and to accuse people of not getting their handy dirty. Just because you choose not to eat me does not give you the right to pass judgement on others who do.
I enjoy a chicken breast slowly cooked and stuffed with a mature cheese and wrapped in bacon, served with a mixture of sweet potato and other seasonal veggies.

Don't make me a bad person....

Oh fuck it Im off to Sainsburys......

I was brought up on a farm, and have killed my own meal many a time.

Those animals bred for meat would never exist with the need for it. Whilst you can sit on your high horse (sorry Trekker) the meat provided supplies most of us. Take it away, and see whether we could feed us all.

You are anthropomorphising animals with emotions they do not have. They live, they die. It is the cycle of life.
 
You dont think animals have emotions? For a 'clever man' that is a very shallow and niave comment. All animals have emotions, you only have to look in their eyes....

Funny how animals, even farm animals, will come to a fence just for a bit of fuss. While i agree with your statement about hunting for fun serves zero purpose and animals are bred for us to survive, i still cannot obide animal cruelty in any circumstance.

Hunting so some toffy nosed git can get chuffed at living the country life though makes my blood boil. But then again so does animals getting shoved around in small cages and killed inhumanely. I am a vegetarian and will never eat meat again. I also will not take any animals life.
 
Animals have their own emotions, not human ones. That's what anthropomorphise means: associating human emotions with animals. More often than not, when you see a reaction from an animal you associate it with a human reaction. That just isn't the case.

I'm not talking about cruelty. I abhor that as well, but often what people think is happening really isn't.

Well I love animals but also enjoy eating them simple really.

And that about sums it up. I learnt very young, when we ate a Sheep I hand reared. Valuing the life of an animal bred for meat is a luxury that very few have.
