Cecil the Lion

[Governor Megachris%Participant 3584]

Am I the only one sick of hearing about this distracting story?  People all over the world are literally crying over a lion that was legally killed for sport, and yet people are asking for this hunter’s death, like saying “we should hunt ALL hunters of poor, innocent wildlife or feed them to the lions they hunt!”  You mean the poor, innocent wildlife that savagely kills other animals for sport on occasion?

Forget the millions of men and babies that die, A LION DIED!  I’m so sick of this woman- and animal-worshiping world.

[Mango IngawayParticipant 2264]

I don’t see the point in trophy hunting since you don’t even eat what you hunt, but if it’s legal and someone wants to do it, I’m not going to complain about it.

Same goes for some hunting videos where they hunt boars etc.
Always some idiot who comments something along the lines of “Oh poor little piggy, hunters are monsters blah blah blah”
Yeah, “poor little piggy”.
Go try to hug a 130 kg “little piggy” next time you go take a walk in a forest, and tell me how that goes, lmao!

The people whining about this are a bunch of hippies who never stepped out of their appartment, I bet.

Because killing an animal with a clean shot is somehow less humane than tearing him apart with your fangs and claws while it’s still alive.
Humans can be cruel, but mother nature isn’t all sweetness and light either.

It is a common failing of childhood to think that if one makes a hero out of a demon the demon will be satisfied.

Doesn’t surprise me a bit! The nearby Zoo-Mass (University of Massachusetts) went F~~~ING BAT S~~~ CRAZY over the cutting of trees to make room for new construction, they even held a funeral for the fallen trees! BOO F~~~ING HOO! Come hug a f~~~ing tree I’m cutting and you can say hello to your intestines! As your torso falls off your legs! Let me at Cecil with my ban saw and cutlery knives, we’ll be eating steak within the hour! I like mine medium then lightly seared..

Don’t worry girls, he’s only sleeping…..

They are using Cecil the Lion to divert us all away from the many real scandals going on world wide.

I have some dealings with this ‘sport’.

I spend quite a bit of time taking guests around S. Africa, Namibia and Botswana. Part of that tour is visiting a lion a cheetah sanctuary.

I was initially horrified that the owners also ran a game hunt next door.

When I enquired as to what the hell was going on …. they raised their eyes to heaven as if to say …. another lilly livered tourist.

They can’t run the sanctuary without income from the hunt.

The older lions .. past their prime and being pushed out … are put up for the hunt. One lion ‘kill’ pays for 5 cubs to adolescence. They’re then released.

Without the hunt you will find pouching because the lion has zero value. Hunt them and they’re worth £10k.

It’s little know that this is happening and should be put out more.

Stooting stops ….. lion become extinct. Shooting happens … 5 lions go on to live in the wild.

You don’t hear about the nutjobs killing elephants, just to take the ivory tusks to sell for money, that’s then spent on terrorism though.

EXACTLY.  The hunter that killed Cecil wasn’t even aware that it was a favored lion in the first place.

Bang on (as usual…).

The money for the sanctuaries and breeding programmes and the guards protecting from illegal poachers has to come from somewhere.

If its the old knackered animals the hyenas would eat anyway why not??

Net result is more wild animals = win.

[The Moth Attracted to the FlameParticipant 2982]

I think Paul Joseph Watson did the best analysis of this situation. While the hunter was in the wrong to kill a prized lion like this, it shows the hypocrisy of people and organizations such as PETA. Oh god, PETA.

[SlayherParticipant 2074]

One thing is for certain….stupid people will never be an extinct breed or on the endangered species list.

I usually agree with most replies on this site but this is wrong. Some rich dentist getting his rocks off by shooting a damn lion is insane. Really burns my ass when this happens. F~~~ing lion was minding his own damn business (protecting his pride and reproducing) and gets lured with meat into an area so this hot shot dentist can shoot him -ughhhh. I swear nothing makes me angrier than this s~~~. A few years ago this rich t~~~ doctor was smiling over her big game kills in Africa. I almost lost it. Proving how manly you are by shooting a lion is ridiculous since that lion would rip him to shreds without his rifle =  total f~~~ing pussy. Sorry guys I know I will get ripped for this one but I just hate this crap and I’m not even a liberal gushy animal right person at all. Does anyone realize how over time we have dropped the numbers of lions from hundreds of thousands down to double digit thousands. Rich privileged doctors are so spoiled it makes me cringe and guess what I am a doctor myself. Sorry about the rant.

Don’t get me wrong … I absolutely hate that hunting these animals goes on and if there was another way of funding future survival … I for one would be advertising it.

However …. until something else makes money appear … there are no other plausible ways I can think of.

I’ve had the honour of being with sedated lions both in the field and on the vets table.

One of my life memories is putting my ear to their chests and feeling and hearing it’s heart.

Also opening its paw out with both my hands …. the size of it was staggering.

These creatures needs saving but like Mr Spock would say ‘the needs of the many far outweigh the needs of the few’.

So they are looking to arrest and put away a white man for killing a lion???

Then would someone please arrest and jail this murderous c~~~. RIGHT NOW.

I hope you’re as passionate about it when a WOMAN does it.

You were saying something about “total f~~~ing pussy…”???? Interesting choice of words.
Feel free. Rant away. Anytime you’re ready. It’s OK, we’ll wait.

In the mean time: “Rich privileged doctors”. Nobody GAVE it to him. He f~~~ing earned it – by dedicating his life to saving lives.
The fact that you would even use such adjectives is embarrassing in itself.

Now about that lion killing c~~~….. I am not advocating the killing of anything, but if your going to hammer out at paragraph about how evil and cowardly a man is , you can add another paragraph about cowardly and pathetic the woman is who does exactly the same thing. They had better go after her with the same force….or they can leave the good doctor alone. He’s done a fair bit of saving lives. Like maybe one of your relatives. Or YOU when you have a heart attack.

She’s not even a f~~~ing doctor and also proudly shows off pictures of her “her first dead Alaskan brown bear”.
The hypocrisy on these “issues” people love to shake their fists about is off the charts.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

[finallyfreeParticipant 341]

Keymaster. Yes I am just as angry when a female, male , hermaphrodite, my mother , or anyone else does it ..  When I wrote that a ” rich t~~~ doctor” I was referring to a woman. Of course he earned it but that doesn’t make it ok? “by dedicating his life to saving lives” ????. If I go to a dentist office for a heart attack then I guess I deserve to pass away. Not trying to argue with you since I consider your advice some of the best I have read on this site or any other for that matter.

[slardy mcbardfastParticipant 118]

Just rename him “cecil the rapist”. Then watch the confusion set in

Of course it doesn’t. I don’t advocate it and said it already. My father hunted 2 deer in his life. I did’t like that either. But if it makes him “SO f~~~ing evil” then it gets kinda funny when the people who are so passionate about it eat bacon cheeseburgers without a thought for “animals”.

I was out walking and saw a woman SHOUTING at a man for disciplining his dog. She was screaming at him like a f~~~ing maniac. A real C~~~. I saw the whole thing and I walked into the scene confronting her because if someone where disciplining HIM, she would just keep walking. And she knows it. “Shut the f~~~ up and don’t be a bitch. You’re treating HIM WORSE than he treated his DOG”.

She is actually KINDER TO PETS THAN SHE IS TO OTHER PEOPLE.

Not even the man treated his dog as badly as she was treating him.
When I pointed that out to her, her stunned expression was f~~~ing priceless.

Why are these people not as quick to reward and exhault men who RESCUE animals and save lives in the same passionate way??

If he deserves a firing squad for hunting a lion….
Then he also deserves Caitlyn Jenner’s medal for courage and the same amount of positive press for what he does every other day of his life.

One of our members here is a doctor. He was telling me an infant’s life was in his hands. A C-section baby. The mother was being stitched up and for 45 minutes nobody heard the baby crying. That’s what everyone wants to hear at that moment. A baby crying. He was s~~~ting his pants and sweating bullets for what seemed like 2 weeks. He saved that baby’s life.

Will he ever get a medal for that?????
Of course not. He’s JUST a man, and it’s JUST his job. But it’s an every day occurrence.

But one doctor shoots a lion … and the whole world goes bats~~~ insane.
Just putting it into a litte perspective. They just want to hate on a man.

Make him pay a huge fine. Ban him from the country. But to go on a “man hunt” makes them no better.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

Ask the people of Njombe or Mfuwe how they feel about Cecil.

[felixParticipant 406]

 Teddy Roosevelt and the Bear

The story I heard was that some bait was set up for Cecil.  If that guy had shot a lion that was eating set bait while I was there I would have clocked him myself with a rifle butt.  However if he was out hunting and this lion was spotted in the wild and he was unaware it had been baited, that’s an entirely different story.   Unfortunate but not criminal.
