African Werewolf


Recommended Posts

You know I gotta say , and this isn't me trying to take a stab at y'all, but I used to love reading stories from the old big game hunters and the like from Britain, always admired how they thought about animals and hunting... Seemed to be so much more to it for them instead of something as simple as food fun or pest control, can't tell you how much that impacted me when it came to viewing hunting and similar... Odd to see that all but gone now days in so many Brits..... I will say though it's alive and well in aom if you but never seen a Brit that has it talk about it around other Brits. Had many good pm discussions and when they where around me and other Americans but never around other Brits.... interesting

That's definitely a mean looking beast   You could guarantee, if we had them here, some chav would be taking photos of it on the sofa next to their toddler.

Cool story from the fb. Talk to a guy in one of our trapping groups who shoots alot of hyena like this for depredation work and they really make out little coyote look like a joke... especially when a .300wsm or .330 win mag are the preferred rounds apparently ? Screenshot_20220427-014836_1.png.6c2ac74f7c0d445f8d84fac9aec665fb.pngScreenshot_20220427-014843_1.png.35d13db050639da5956dc3e4e200282b.png

Well the fact hyenas aren't really much more then a pest species in most of Africa....you know what never mind. You win wilf ole boy... Boy o boy I see more and more why y'all are in the mess y'all are in over there as outdoorsmen.....

some are antis and dont even know it ? 

will kill a fox but it’s cruel to kill an hyena 

taking an animals life is taking an animals life you have to be screwed up in the head to think one is differnet to the other ? bombed out

The only thing I found objectionable about that article was the flowery ,faux Hemingway ,rhetoric used in a desperate effort to rack up the drama ,other than that ,well done that man ,and what an impressive beast .

Now, killing is killing and I accept that…..but running a fox with a lurcher that may or may not get away Scot free is a bit different to shooting say a lion in a pen with an arrow !

May not be to some, but to me it is.

The species matter little really, if some fat f***ing dentist is paying 50 grand to bait in a tiger that lives in some enclosure then it’s for him…..it isn’t a service.

He probably has a Harley Davidson and a leather jacket and wares a bandanna at weekends……either way, the geezer is a screamer ! 
 

Im am aware that the money they spend means many fantastic species survive to this day, but it’s a cock extension none the less.

Dont compare that to dropping a deer or even a rabbit that’s going in the freezer to be eaten…..it’s not even in the same stratosphere.

I was in Kenya in 2009 ish , under the shadow of ol kan jo where we were parked in a liga. Massive non tac so we had a fire pit in the middle , flaming away all night in our razor wire square a small Land Rover sized gap in the end . 

as is my normal , I like to be last in bed , always have been and walked the square with my mate and our nvgs . Looking out at the elephants and the the other night creature when in the track a smalll gang of Hyenas came stumbling along like feral teenagers .

they stood arguing amongst themselves edging towards us . Egging each other on with that chortle until one  broke ranks and ran in the camp . It ran round in a circle spinning itself like a whirly gog laughing away before flying back to its mates and they flew off , laughing into the night. 

it was genuinely one of the best things I’ve seen , and without anthropomorphising the behaviour, it was exactly like a gang of kids daring one togo In and one saying “ who won’t ? Watch this !” 

Funny old animals like .

Well first of your trying to compare canned hunting to actually hunting which are two completely separate things. And are you trying to say all big game hunts are canned ? If so .....um....what ? Yeah would hope anyone with enough brain cells to rub together to blink can look at at some rich prick having a canned hunt and have the morals to understand "Hay ! That's not really hunting...or ethical". Not even sure why true outdoors men would even need to discuss that honestly.

But if your trying to say every trophy or big predator hunt is canned then that level of ignorance is just..... painful to say the leae

I have no idea at all how many are “canned” or not……I just don’t see any reason to cut about wasting the most fantastic creatures on earth for no other reason than to say you killed one and to put a picture on the wall. 
 

It’s stuff like that you just can’t justify.

Just different opinions of a thing really mate.

you sure that isn’t a deerhound chart ? 

A deerhound would have more chance of taking one than a Saluki ?

It would die in seconds, but it wouldn't run away with its tail between its legs, never to be seen again ! ?? !

Cheers.
