Two sons of US property mogul Donald Trump have come under fire after pictures emerged of them posing with the corpses of African animals during a hunting trip.

Donald Junior and Eric Trump spent a week in the Zimbabwean bush in August 2010, and are pictured standing next to trophy kills of a Cape buffalo, a waterbuck, a leopard, a civet cat, a crocodile and a kudu.

The wildlife of Africa was much better off when hunting was acceptable. It made the wildlife a valuable natural resource.

Now the indigenous populations consider wildlife to be pests.

He should send a note to PETA “I thought PETA stands for Please Eliminate Ten Animals.”

the hunts are designed to keep down wildlife numbers and the money he spent is used for conservation
Of course he's right.

Proper game management is what is needed, not an absolute ban on hunting.

Interesting that they used the word corpse. That usually means a human body. Carcass would more properly mean a non human animal. The world has gone insane and the animal rights lobby has led the way.

We need a list of every Democrat senator, congressman and governor who hunts, or at least claims to hunt. Because I’m sure these lefty-loons are gonna wanna go nuts about them also.

That’s liberalism for you. That’s why this whole issue is so funny. If you really want to make a lib mad, kill a water buffalo or some other critter.....

You’ll notice how libs talk about abortion........ They’ll use any term to make it sound like they are getting rid of something non human.

Corpses? Barf. To hell with liberals. The reason these animals are still around is due to hunters dollars. What losers; upset and painfully ignorant. Enjoy the misery.

That’s a good idea. Of course, we will have video evidence of the double standards in play.

The other animals are no big deal, but leopards are rare. Shooting one for kicks is pretty pathetic. I expect these two idiots will have their own reality show soon, sponsored by whatever hair gel they’ve packed onto their heads.

Personally I’m really not cool over killing wild cats except in self defense.

But I am sure if these men were contributors to several abortions of trump descendants, no lib would give a damn. But the animals...

The average duration of a fortune is 3 generations. I’d say the bucks stop with those two.

All that's missing is having some dollar bills hanging out of their mouths.

Omg, they killed an elephant. Sorry, I can’t support that either. They should stick to killing antelopes or water buffaloes.
