        This is awful, but for all of you calling him a monster, I hope you're VEGAN! It's complete hypocrisy otherwise! MAKE THE CONNECTION! #GoVeganhttps://youtu.be/6jWe6Tx89GU

        He's a monster because he didn't hunt these endangered species for sustenance or defense; he hunted them for "sport". Because "it's fun". He joked about the baboons being free. He was proud of his killing. I'm not vegan but even I know food animals aren't killed for fun.

        Still a hypocrite! You don't need to kill sentient beings for nourishment, you do it for taste! The only difference is you hire the murderer, so you don't feel responsible for the action, still an accomplice. Not to mention, what its doing to the environment!

        Grew up in a hunting family in N Michigan. Hunting for food was a part of our lifestyle. It is easy for me to see the difference between that and killing for perverse pleasure. I respect your right to hold your beliefs, but understand others see it differently.

        Same here. I gave up hunting after years of tradition. As I grew more educated about evolutionary biology, I came to see the common thread connecting all animal life, especially primates for god sakes. So I quit hunting. I don't condemn sustenance hunters which this guy isn't.

        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.

        You know I just noticed that the knife the JR is holding is as clean as his clothes. Did he even hunt the elephant or did he just shoot it or is this a staged picture?
