        Wish I could feel sorry for these guys. But I gotta be honest - I don't. I just don't. They got what they deserved. Just imagining how many animals they killed before this. In nature, turn-about is fair play.

        Yeah. But a lot of the poachers sell for dirt cheap to other sellers who make high dollar off the ivory. A lot of the poaching gangs consist of native Africans who can barely afford food and other essentials. Doesn't make it right, but does make it kinda sad.

        If this is true, it truly IS sad. The ivory & fur trades should be totally shut down. People who buy both should be shunned.

        It’s a joke, Chris. Besides, check out YouTube videos of lions helping other species. Fascinating stuff. There’s one where a lion picks up a baby gorilla that’s hurt in a road and carries it over to the father gorilla, waiting high in a tree. It drops the baby and walks away.
