That's a bizarre picture. Do you think it was her idea? I don't think it was.

Silly moo. The only enjoyment you're allowed to get from killing an animal is the taste of it.
100% verifiable facts or your money back. Anti-fascist. Enemy of woo - theistic or otherwise. Cloth is not an antiviral. Imagination and fantasy is no substitute for tangible reality. Wishing doesn't make it real.

It wouldn't be so bad, if the money for trophy hunting had to go through the government.
There would be a control on what was killed, and the profits would ''theoretically'' get recycled into projects that benefited the whole population, not some get-rich-quick hunter and landowner.

I'm very surprised that Mugabe hasn't made that the law. But then, he's so corrupt, he doesn't really give a toss about his people. He's probably getting a kick-back off it.
While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.
