Ian
Gibson, 55, was tracking animals in Chewore North in the lower Zambezi
Valley of Zimbabwe, when the young bull elephant "began a full charge.”





Paul Smith, the managing director of Chifuti Safaris which employed Gibson, told The Telegraph:
"We don't yet know the full details of how 'Gibbo' as we called him,
died, as the American client and the trackers are still too traumatised
to give us full details."

Hunting big and dangerous game is dangerous and part of the thrill.  

RIP, sometimes you eat the bear and sometimes the bear eats you.  That guy probably lived one hell of a life!

Well, they don't call it dangerous game for nothing.

Hopefully the Disney brigade remembers shit like this when they whine about people shooting the pretty critters.
