I can't get too upset about this....   but some people sure are!


http://www.thenational.scot/news/17004309.fury-over-pictures-of-goat-hunt-on-scottish-island/


American TV presenter and big game hunter is slammed for posing for online photo with goat she shot dead on Scottish island

The goats are pests considered to be invasive and there is a culling program on them.  I don't know about the red deer.  Great Britain has killed off all their top predators (wolves) a long time ago, so even the native species are not in any sort of "ecological balance".

I do have an issue with trophy hunting...   but if there's a cull on the animals anyway?

What I do have an issue with is the glorification...  posing with dead animals...   camouflage clothing (????)  to hunt on Islay?  So typical redneck stupidity.  Tone deaf, for sure. 

But I can't find the rage......

I can find a little rage when I see the photo's this nitwit prick from Idaho posted as he brags about shooting "a whole family of baboons" and other game.His job in Idaho didn't pay him enough to feed himself?
