Did anyone else see the recent episode of Nosler’s Magnum TV featuring African lion? The title is “Lions of the Moyowosi.” In this episode, the hunter clearly shoots a Lichtenstein’s hartebeest and a lion from a vehicle. I don’t know if this is legal where they are hunting, but I must presume it is or surely they would not have allowed the filming. I must say that it makes for pretty miserable TV viewing. I usually enjoy this show very much, but seeing two magnificent animals taken in this way turned my stomach. I tried to find an e-mail contact for the show to voice my displeasure, but the forums on the club’s website are for members only. Is anyone here a member?

well, we didn’t see that one but we just happened across one today, sat. july, 25 where they were shooting giraffes! now that is real sportsmanship…after all, we all know how dangerous and swift a giraffe is…i am so glad that someone has finally started shooting them before they run rampant over the planet!…NOT!
what a bunch of incredible losers. does anyone actually eat them? or is it all about the trophy? these are the kind of guys that give peta and all the other animal rights advocates fuel for their fires.
what’s next…puppies? kittens? hell, let’s just kill everything that has fur!

I have discussed this same practice with a professional hunter working in Africa. He said that if one wishes to go on safari to shoot a giraffe, one is free to do so, just not with him.
