It takes a special effort to concoct so much rubbish. It's far easier to report the truth, maybe not as lucrative.

Hi Jared! It’s good to have to back first and foremost.

Second, this article hits the nail perfectly. I’ve been told by many, including Dr. Pieter Kat, that many of those concessions were hunted out along ago and left due to the lack of viable game to shoot. Zambia also exhibits this problem. I just don’t understand how the TH industry continues to inspire fear and control into the many scientists that should oppose it to make life better for BOTH wildlife and people.

Thank you Jared. It absolutely fathoms me why people enjoy killing for sport!

Evil lives amongst us and the suffering of the innocent.

This article raises 2 very good questions. 1. Whatever happened to you saying that you were never going to write about trophy hunting or wildlife conservation again? Seems a little taxing on your credibility and honesty to come back with such a typo riddled and poorly done article. Second: Why select only a very small sample of tweets taken out of context instead of oh, I don't know, posting screenshots of the entire conversation for your readers to see and make their own conclusions from? It's pretty apparent that there is something of the fruit harvesting variety happening in your article, which isn't surprising at all. Make sure to save some of the cherry pie from the picking you have done for me :)

Would you be so kind as to direct me to an African grassroots group against trophy hunting as described in the article? I'd appreciate it.
