Cecil the Lion

The knowledge the dentist had at the time is immaterial to me. He paid someone to bring the lion to him. In my mind this is not hunting. Hunting requires a person to stalk the prey, know their natural instincts, and out think the animal. I agree hunting provides the most human death for a wild animal. The dentist is not a hunter and gives hunters a bad rap, just as some unethical scrappers give to the rest of us.

I do not like government regulating everything in our lives, but at the same time I support hunting and fishing licenses when the money is directed to the preservation of wildlife. Look at what we did to the bison without regulation. The last statement is not original, it is one I have heard many times.

I am thinking the man that shot the drone out of the sky above his home is more of a hunter. At least he outsmarted a machine.
