Just doesn't look very sportsman like ot me. Guy provokes animals to charge just so he can get a good video. Doesn't pas the ethical sniff test. The odds will get him one day. That guy is pratically begging Murphy to drop by.

Properly managed elephant herd populations are on the rise. Hunter fees provide an income source not only to the PH but also the locals. The meat goes to the people and everything is used. In countries were no herd management is being used the populations are on the decline. This is due to the fact that there is no incentive for the locals to prevent poaching.

I don't have a problem with hunting hippo, buff, zebra or elephants. I've been charged by hippos and elephants on more than a few occasions, but have never had the opportunity to hunt dangerous game.
That said, this guy is an asshole. 1. Provoking a charge and then shooting the animal for film purposes is just not right 2. Distances can be deceiving on film, but it looked like he was using a double at 100+ meter range on some of the buff and elephant? WTF? 3. Taking broadside running shots at elephant and buffalo at that range? Really? 4. I'd ask for my money back if this PH took me on a hunt...in fact, we probably wouldn't even leave camp if I had a chance to meet him before the hunt. He looks and sounds like an arrogant dumbass. How did he get his PH license? I agree, this does not pass muster... |

Sorry, but I cant believe the comments here. The guy is going to kill an animal. Who friggen cares if he gives the animal the first strike opportunity? Big friggin deal. How is this un-ethical? The animal dies within seconds. Is he hunting without a license? Did he leave it wounded? Did he brand it with an iron and torture it to death?
I am very surprised that the people who are busy trying to defend their freedoms in this day an age are ///edit/// discussing a hunter going out and enjoying himself.....seriously. Maybe we should be concerned if he used a rifle that has a magazine and pistol grip. Oh..sorry...I didn't mean to disturb some Harvard tea party intellectual conversation at the tennis club ..... holy shit.. Seriously....very petty... |
