Stop Shooting Wild Animals for Trophies

Target: President Cyril Ramaphosa, South Africa

Goal: Advocate for a ban on trophy hunting as a form of “conservation,” to prevent unsustainable wildlife declines.

Trophy hunting involves killing wild animals like elephants, rhinos, and big cats for sport, with the aim of obtaining their body parts as a “trophy.” Despite being marketed as a form of conservation, this practice has been shown to have negative effects on wildlife populations, as it often targets the strongest and healthiest animals, leading to unsustainable population declines.

In addition to causing ecological damage, trophy hunting also has ethical implications, as it involves the killing of sentient beings for recreational purposes. The practice has been criticized for being cruel and unnecessary, with many alternatives available for conservation efforts that do not involve killing.

The detrimental impact of trophy hunting on wildlife populations cannot be overstated. Immediate action must be taken to ban this practice to mitigate the catastrophic effects on South Africa’s precious biodiversity and wildlife populations.

The ban on trophy hunting as a form of conservation is a crucial step in preserving South Africa’s wildlife populations. The practice of trophy hunting threatens to disrupt the natural balance of ecosystems, with knock-on effects on other species and the environment as a whole. In conjunction with the ban, it is imperative to encourage the use of alternative methods of conservation that do not involve killing.

In light of the urgent need to protect our environment and preserve the biodiversity of South Africa’s wildlife populations, we call for swift and decisive action to ban trophy hunting as a form of conservation. Through proactive measures such as these, we can ensure a brighter and more sustainable future for generations to come.

Through the ban of trophy hunting as a form of conservation, we can prevent unsustainable population declines in South Africa’s wildlife populations. This will help to protect our environment and preserve the health of our ecosystems. Demand action immediately.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear President Ramaphosa,

I am writing to urge you to advocate for the ban of trophy hunting as a form of conservation to prevent unsustainable population declines in South Africa’s wildlife populations. Trophy hunting has been shown to have negative effects on wildlife populations, as it often targets the strongest and healthiest animals, leading to unsustainable population declines.

The practice of trophy hunting has been marketed as a form of conservation, but it is clear that the detrimental impact on wildlife populations cannot be overlooked. The killing of sentient beings for recreational purposes has also raised ethical concerns.

To address this issue, we must take action to ban the use of trophy hunting as a form of conservation. This will help to prevent unsustainable population declines in South Africa’s wildlife populations and preserve the natural balance of ecosystems. In addition, we must encourage the use of alternative methods of conservation that do not involve killing.

We urge you to take immediate action and support the ban of trophy hunting as a form of conservation to protect our environment and preserve the health of our ecosystems.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

    This garbage needs to end immediately!!!

  2. Irene Volk says:

    Looking at the sorry looking faces of the 3 people with the stupid looking hunter I can only think if they realize they are giving away their patrimony to ignorance and greed. Shame on a government still permitting this disgusting way of making money !

    • Funnily enough, contrary to what you say though, the one on the left is holding a high powered rifle!!
      Maybe he had to help the murderer finish the job!!

  3. Robin Abbott says:

    With 96 percent of mammalian life on the planet consisting of human beings and our domesticated animals and a staggeringly minimal 4 percent makes up wildlife, hunting wildlife period, is WRONG!!! With our numbers going unchecked and out of control I fear there is no hope for any other species or the planet!

  4. Tracey A says:

    I fucking hate humans more and more with each passing day. I know this trophy shit’s been going on for years, but just seeing photos of it angers to no end. And on top of “regular” animal abuse, it sets me off like nothing else.

    • Clave W. says:

      I feel your pain so much. Unfortunately it’s too late. They’ve been doing this for centuries now and most populations are down to nothing. Africa, trophy killers’paradise, has now been invaded by hungry asians that care even less about the natural world. So all those iconic specie are there for the taking.

  5. Men with small dicks do this.

    • I do not know if I have enough knowledge on this subject that trophy hunters have small dicks but I do appreciate the laugh that I got from reading your post. I can honestly say that Men posing in pictures that they have just killed an animal with their Rifles look foolish. Like as if to say “Look at me and what I killed”. Just a bunch of Pedophiles exposing their true selves.

    • Joanne Bradley says:

      Its “little man syndrome” trying to prove something. If they were brave they wouldnt need rifles. The scumbags drug the animals and they have no chance to escape. Greed for money from low life scum, they dont have enough brains to earn a living through hard work. Humans are the most dangerous animals on the planet

  6. STOP ALL KILLIMG OFVALL ANIMALS IMMEDIATELY!! BAN ALL TROPHY HUNTING ILLEGAL!! IF ANY ABUSIVE CRUELTY IDIOT KILLS AN ANIMAL THIS STIUPID CRURL AND ABUSIVE IDIOT NEEDS TO BEVDHOT DEAD TOO!!!!

  7. I really do hope this petition makes progress .. the 3ffing ANC GOV doesn’t even listen to it’s voters.. they don’t care for animals. So good luck.

    All the vile and evil psychopathic lowlife Trophy Hunter monsters must be hunted down and tortured to death. All the vile and evil Trophy huntering Monsters must be shot to death.Kill all these lowlife vile and evil monster Trophy Hunting bastards immediately. Death to all the monsters on ourPlanet.

    This should and needs to be illegal. What sick sub humans would want to murder a beautiful animal. I say have them hunt the horrible humans and rid the world of them. Not helpless animals. It’s heartbreaking.

  10. Well, just look at this smug little bastard. Isn’t he a brave man showing off sitting on the animal he has just murdered!
    Nice picture with his ‘suntanned’ buddies. We can’t call them ‘black’ now can we?
    Yes we fucking can because that’s what they are and just as bad as the little tosser with his rifle!
    Of course the little prick could not do this on his own so I expect has to pay for these tossers to tell him what to do.
    There must be someone ( some bastard would be more appropriate) who organises these murder hunts!
    These are also the fuckers who need taking out as obviously they are making a lot of money at the expense of murdered animals.
    Trophy hunters they are supposedly called. Well it makes it sound better doesn’t it? ‘Animal murderers’ isn’t so nice when bragging to your buddies.
    Just murdered an elephant today. Doesn’t sound as good as, “ Hey boys, had a really hard time today tracking and killing an elephant”. Aren’t I a brave guy, yes!!
    This little murdering bastard needs a quick bullet through the back of his fucking head as do his bloody helpers.
    What right have they to murder innocent majestic animals just because it makes the fuckers feel good?
    These are the arseholes who should be tracked, hunted and then terminated the same as what they are doing to animals.
    The governing bodies should be able to put a stop to these atrocities and anyone doing this to be locked up, or better still shot at dawn as the old saying goes.
    Petitions are needed as these buggers will do nothing as long as the money and lifestyle is not affected.
    Power to any rangers who could accidentally shoot these murdering fuckers whilst out in the bush or wherever.
    Bastards all of them!!

  11. Bernhard Yolanda says:

    against these cursed mass murderers of all animals worldwide, the laws must finally and immediately be made and/or adapted and expanded.
    this abuse in any form must be contained, no matter if “not bad” to extreme violence. everything must definitely be punished without mercy.
    or… maybe one day there will be revenge.
    no one should be sure…
    karma works like crazy…

  12. Bernhard Yolanda says:

    would like to perfect my shooting skills on these dirty, deviant and superfluous garbage bags….
    stop…. I have a good idea !!!
    doesn’t the east need bullet catchers???

  13. These are evil POSs. May karma get them in the worst way!

  14. Lisa Allis says:

    Everyone in this photo looks like a complete fool sitting on that elephant. Why does nobody have the sense to stop this animal abuse? Please Africa try to do better on animal welfare!

  15. I HOPE THE WILD ANIMALS EAT THE THE HUNTERS FOR MEAL.

  16. Patricia Leigh Wicker says:

    THOSE SADISTIC EVIL BASTARDS SITTING ON THAT PRECIOUS ELEPHANT. I AM HEARTSICK!

  17. Julia Edinger says:

    I agree with. Wendy Morrison
    “STOP ALL KILLIMG OFVALL ANIMALS IMMEDIATELY!! BAN ALL TROPHY HUNTING ILLEGAL!! IF ANY ABUSIVE CRUELTY IDIOT KILLS AN ANIMAL THIS STUPID CRUEL AND ABUSIVE IDIOT NEEDS TO BE DEAD TOO!!!!”

  18. Ann Sutton says:

    Cowardly scum!!!!

  19. TROPHY HUNTING & smuggling must be stopped — Wild Animals have the RIGHT to live — Their lives are valuable — Our Planet NEEDS them — Cruel & merciless savage Trophy HUNTER/SMUGGLERS should be held accountable & punished — WE do NOT want REPEATS of SLAUGHTER of Animals — IDIOT-hunters should get lengthy time in jail including paying severe & hefty fines — There’s NO JUSTIFICATION — There are many ways to earn a living, to enjoy life & to engage in a wide variety of entertaining activities WITHOUT inflicting suffering & death — If these were HUMAN lives, we would be ready with the Death Penalty — The insane, needless, hateful, immoral, cruel & unconscionable CRIMES against Animals MUST STOP
