She killed it because it was awesome. Or maybe she just had a hankering to kill a lion. That’s her business, not yours.

Vegans are so angry because they’re hungry all the time. Sucks to be them.

“Of all the wild animals to kill for food, why a lion?”

You don’t kill a lion for food, you hunt it because it takes skill and if you screw up can get you killed. I’m not a trophy hunter but did kill a deer with a 44 mag open sighted revolver at 125 yards. I kept the horns and ate the meat.

Bacteria are dangerous and have killed more people than war and lions ever have. Too bad they make lousy trophies.

True enough.

That lion probably died dreaming of Kilimanjaro---of, as Hemingway wrote, the sculptured peaks and hollows..."...or, as even Wikipedia notes, of "Kibo and Mawenzi and the saddle in between...".

...sigh...

Agreed!
I was waiting to see if chessplayer would respond and was then going to address the conservation aspect of keeping critters free and alive through licensing fees like saleman did.
However I wanted to see if there would be a reply first. As expected it was a ‘post it’ then go run and hide response. I didn’t want to waste anyone’s time writing about something the choir already knows.

Looks like at least a double D to me.

I kinda have to agree with you. It upset me to look at that beautiful big cat like that.

I suppose people do it, but I think it was kind of sick to take pictures and post them.

To each his own, I guess.

“There’s no reason to kill to eat”

You are wrong. What I kill is ten times more healthy to eat than anything you buy in a store.

Why not a lion, elephant, whale, seal, etc?

Who cares, they are just animals and someone will eat them.

Without sportsmen hunting there would be little wildlife left for the city twits to see.

Anyone can see just by looking at these pics that she’s a legitimate part of the food chain.

Yeah, I said it.

Yes there is.

Have you ever tried taking a bite out of a running cows butt?
