A Warm Feeling

Post by vegetariantaxidermy »

I realise this is fairly old news, and doesn't happen often enough, but it still brings a smile to my face when I think about it.

Imagine the sheer terror of being surrounded by a group of hungry lions, knowing you are about to be eaten alive, wondering which bit they will go for first. Anyone else it would be a tragedy. For hunters and poachers it's bliss.

Like a housecat with a mouse, a big cat may play with a small poacher before dining.

The lions are savagely innocent.

Isaiah 11:6 King James Version (KJV)
The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.

There are youtube videos of innocent leopards playing with kids before dining.

That's bullshit. They make a hell of a lot of money. It's about greed and nothing else. If they wanted to feed their 'starving families' then they would be hunting ACTUAL FOOD. How racist of you to assume they are black and starving. Are all Africans starving?? Many of the people who are trying to PROTECT the rhino are black Africans, and they don't appear to be starving. How far would the top brass get if they didn't have killers willing to do anything for money?
They leave baby rhinos crying by their dead and mutilated mothers. They are psychopaths who don't give a fuck about anything but money. It's about greed--NOT feeding starving families. They deserved what they got, but you are right; it's just a shame that those higher up don't share the same fate along with all those superstitious Asian morons who think rhino horn has magical powers.

''The claim that 12 people die of hunger every minute in Africa is not supported by the available data.

The World Health Organisation’s admittedly imperfect mortality data suggests that fewer than 400,000 people died in Africa as a result of “nutritional deficiencies” in 2011, far lower than the 6.3-million suggested by the claim. The global estimate of 2.6-million children under the age of five , whose deaths are linked to malnutrition, is also far below the figure claimed for Africa alone.

Hunger and malnutrition pose serious challenges on the African continent and even the lower figure of 400,000 people dying as a result of “nutritional deficiencies” is shocking – not far off one death a minute. As Giyose stated, it is unacceptable. But to combat hunger and malnutrition in targeted manner, aid organisations and governments need accurate data to devise policies and properly allocate scarce resources. Claims such as this do not help. More and better developed data is needed.''


They used to claim it was 'every six seconds' but had to withdraw that because it meant there wouldn't have been anyone left in Africa in a fairly short time.
There is also big money to be made out of the 'starving African' industry.

I'm gonna be the voice of dissemination here and say that I don't think they got what they deserve; I have a large amount of respect and appreciation for actual, licensed hunters with all the right research, but I don't think poachers deserve to die...No.

Good for you, resident psychopath. The lions clearly felt differently.

Hang on. What about all the traffic jams rhinos cause AND the fact that Asians need the aphrodisiac from the horn of the rhino so that they can breed more.
