so many anti comments on this thread.

 

any wonder fox cant be hunted when hunters turn on their own .

blan cant believe you said that i am not against it .. even if it was druged or tame !! ffs man just tieit to a tree and shoot it , whats the f,,kin difference ..sporting ,, my arse

[riohog 5,701]

no not sporting,not even hunting,but would you make it illegal?

its their property if someone is willing to pay thousands to kill it (tied to a tree or not) thats their business not mine (or yours)

 

i suppose everyone makes choices . itwouldnt suit me .. would i make it illigal NO

 

 

i dont like rollerscates ,,but i wouldnt make them illigal either

 

but ive shot .fished hunted with dogs and f,,ck knows what over 40 years , traveled to more countries than most can name ,, and allways had respect for what i killed before and after it was dead .. to me there was no resect there but ok blan yes things happen just not for me

I don't know about anti comments chimp, personally if a hunter was to venture into the African bush and stalk and kill a wild lion, then thats hunting, also the license costs will go back into the community and wildlife, many of these species need to be harvested to control the numbers to ensure the ecological balance. "stalking", and I use that term with my tongue firmly in my cheek that lion that just lies there whilst a film crew noisly trample across the savannah just shows that lion was as wild and difficult to stalk as a oak tree. Personally I enjoy shooting/fishing and working my dogs but to me its about being in the countryside and my quarry always has a good chance to escape, for me thats the thrill of hunting, otherwise I'd just go and fish in my garden pond, tip a pet rabbit into the field for my dog or shoot ducks nesting at night. Different cultures and all that but personally I would get no enjoyment from shooting a tame or semi tame animal................

who said it was tame .......... THE HUNTING LIFE ........

 

we dont know the facts about it so i dont think anyone should say how out of order it is , its like the muppets on here who say hares are only for lurchers or killing milky doe rabbits is out of line (even it is pest control)

 

we dont know if it had been wounded and needed to pts , or if it was old and on it's last legs. what i did notice on a few of his other films he shot a giraffe to show to what great effect the arrow heads work on game ( oh the giraffe was dead prior to the shot )

 

they DO breed lions on game reserves out there for people to hunt as you CANNOT hunt them wild , all it is doing is giving someone the opportunity to hunt an african beast.

 

me personaly would want to hunt only wild animals BUT i respect ANY other forms of hunting / shooting / culling call it what you want

 

also what makes you think these things cant escape , the reserves are f*****g massive !!

 

you show me an adult TAME lion

 

next time i walk up on a hare to give it a swift boot up the arse i will remember the hunting lifes words of wisdom............ it's tame

[spiderpig 39]

I agree chimp, "the hunting life", now could be wrong but its highly unlikely, as unlikely as me choosing cous cous over steak that that lion was wild or injured, to me thats not "hunting". Im not doubting the effect of a well placed arrow, thats not my point,i have seen bow hunitng on film and its amazing.

 

As for the tame lion, no probelm, Clarence is in the yard munching on a kudu and is looking forward to a tickle behind the mane.................then a local lad is paying me £20,000 to pepper him with an air rifle.......

simonman you need to get some blood lust thats for sure,,who really cares as who are we to judge others on there chosen way of doing things....each to there own but id do it for sure and how many decent lads on hear would turn that exact same chance down if it was offered for free,,,idiots and liars will say oh i wouldnt do it the rest would say too right,,,,,even if it was tame i recon if it was me id still be shitting myself

[longdogbow 12]

might as well just come to our wood and shoot at paper target faces or 3Ds.i can do that any day of the week.

also i would like to point out that the twat also had another arrow nocked on the string and turned round back towards the guide and the camera man with the bow upright.so what if the lion had a last gasp got to its feet and tried to charge them? big no no in my book.ok its not like holding a loaded rifle with the safety off because the bow wasnt at draw.but a wounded charging lion. 3 blokes shittin it.the guide fumbling with the rifle for a split second.you could see what could happen.

Spider, im not judging, just not my cup of tea or what i'd call hunting, would I turn down the chance to shoot a lion that looks that tame, 100% yes I would, offer me the same chance with a wild lion that needed harvesting and I'd be more interested but hunting lions has never been on my to do list and im neither an idiot or liar. As for "shitting myself", too right whether its tame or wild.

As for bloodlust, as you know, its not in my nature.

Well spider I wouldnt be hunting the lion with my dog........As for stupid f*****g comments, its all about opinions and debate, surely thats what makes it interesting, as I said, not my cup of tea but as for big game hunting, no problem, as already said its vital for the local economy. You say there is too much divide and then seperate "true hunters" from none generation hunters, pot and kettle my felching friend

simon i refuse to enter into further conversation due to your balding head and bottom licking habits ,,you are a true gay and for that i salute you...not my cup of tea hey but who am i to judge....
