        No one with so little respect for wildlife should be in charge of managing it. And buddy—you didn’t “harvest” anything. You didn’t plant them and you sure as hell aren’t EATING baboons or giraffes for dinner. You shot them for fun and then bragged about it. Own it or quit it.

        Why in God's good name would any rational, reasonable person do that? It makes absolutely no sense. He should resign in shame.

        This should be illegal. This is not a sport. Fine if you hunt for food, but this is wrong. Oh and did you see all the others he killed??

        Totally agree, hunting should be for food only, not for trophies.

        How in the hell does anyone find pride in this? Why is this still legal? Boycott anyone who supports this, no exceptions.

        He submitted his letter of resignation and the governor accepted. Rightfully so.

        A man who needs to feel powerful by killing innocent animals does not need to be in any public position.

        This is truly heartbreaking for so many reasons. He is murdered animals —- for no apparently reason other than he thinks it is somehow manly to kill baboons. It doesn’t, it just makes him unfit to serve his office. He has murdered God’s creatures for sport. How sad.

        Because he made it the public's business by using public funds to share his conquests? Do you not understand the responsibility of the access/using public funds?

        Also, beyond the context that the public employees are expected to use public funds appropriately, this doesn't give the flexibility that private companies allow. How would you like water operations to send emails about their personal life while letting water tests to go....?

        Bit of a stretch there. He was out of the country and had nothing to do with his work responsibilities.
