A very good documentary that shines a light on the cruel practices of killing for sport

Trophy hunters pay big money to kill animals all over the world. Over 126,000 wildlife trophies per year on average. We are in the midst of a 6th mass extinction. Wildlife numbers are plummeting everywhere, with grave risks to the biosphere. The UN warns that we need to start rewilding an area the size of China to restore the natural environment. And yet wild animals are still being hunted all over the world. That makes no sense. High time to take a closer look at these practices.

Hunting for food in the western world is unnecessary and hunting for animal body parts to display is an abomination which is the cause of much animal suffering. It is cruel abuse of sentient creatures. It is of course big business bringing in mega bucks, and it is not true the money gets to rural poor. It goes into the pockets of corrupt officials and safari organisations.

Hunters try to persuade us they are conservationists, nothing is further from the truth. They are freaks who simply enjoy killing.

Anyone interested in the truth about this vile sport should check out Eduardo Gonçalves books 'Trophy Hunting Exposed' and 'Trophy Leaks.' Both are on Amazon and I believe they are on Kindle too.

While I don't like killing a lion for example, I cannot agree with this lady. I worked in the wildlife industry and trophy hunting in most cases does indeed fund conservation. The reality is that if the animals cease to exist they cannot be hunted, that is why the money goes back into breeding, breeding to be hunted I suppose. There will always be hunters and there will always be tourists. You will always have both. I for one will not be judged by people who cannot even device what gender they are. Africa is not a poor continent, it is in fact the richest continent. It has aways bee exploited and been run by corrupt people. Fix the corruption and everyone will be happy.

This is a disgrace, nothing more than anti-hunting propaganda, spinning the narrative that money from hunting does not go back into conservation despite the overwhelming evidence that it does. This is a distasteful portrayal of hunting with a story and cinematography engineered to portray a biased and damaging view point. There are no balanced interviews or arguments. This is massively damaging and does a total disservice to everyone in Africa who is successful managing their ecosystem to the benefit of all the wildlife they support. This film/documentary aims at exposing why wild lion populations are declining and not once mentions the undisputed number one threat to wild lions - habitat loss. Shame on all involved.
