It seems South Africa has a problem with being humane to both people and animals. Raising large cats to only exterminate them for money is inhumane treatment. Many countries around the World would love to be able to have them in reserves for the countrypeople to learn from-even just leaving them in South Africa would be better. Why don't you start maintaining a better environment and taking care of the plains country where these cats live and allow them to repopulate?

There is no justifiable reason to attempt to prove what a sport you are, by conducting CANNED HUNTS or by killing any NON-EATABLE animal. This is not the act of a hunter or of a man...it is a sick behavior done by a bully, the sort of person who finds causing harm to those unable to fight back to be a thrill....
