Good news.
>>5154768>To shreds, you say?
>>5154768>>5154779how does this even happen? wouldn't he need to be really close to get rushed down by an angry cow
>>5154779
>>5154780check some youtube videos of water buffalo charges, their habitat is thick brush as tall as they are and you don't see them until they're 20 feet away
Ben gli sta.
>unprovoked attack
>>5154780Bovids are faster than you think, and cape buffalo have a hair trigger and will gore you the millisecond you even smell like a vague hint of a threat.
>>5154780theyre one of the big five for a reason
>>5154780They're not just angry cows, they're one of the big killers in that area (of the animals that kill people in Africa's south) and are very vengeful and strong, it's not hard to be slain by them really.
REST IN PISS
>>5154850>>5154854>>5154856>>5154783oh damn. badass animals. i'm glad i don't live near any or hunt them.
Didn't this happen months ago?
>>5154880Defending nature is a right wing aryan trait
>>5154917hitler was a left winger
>>5154880Yeah it's so obvious from a mile awayI suspect they're more angry at the "millionare" part than the actual hunting
>>5154880>/an/ - Animals & Nature
>>5154880>scared cletus noises
>>5154884It's a bump thread
>>5154768Kek in all fields. Imagine being that well-resourced, having access to modern weaponry, going out of your way to prepare and show up to kill something, only to get shitstomped by some fat retarded cow that park rangers safely pass by everyday and that your Stone Age ancestors were utterly wrecking with pointy sticks. What an absolute fag.
>>5154783And yet the people filming those videos clearly lived to upload them, almost certainly while operating with less firepower than this buffalo's opponent. This man was simply genetically unfit to live.
>>5154768Its bad news, and always will be. Trophy hunters fund conservation more than you. They also kill fewer animals than a KFC customer (you, nigga).
>>5154937Absolutely wonderful post, anon. You're cool and I mean that unironically.
>>5154957I am a millionaire, I will fund cancer research but only if you let me hunt a small number of children with leukemia. Please praise me.
>>5154768That’s not good news
>>5154957It helps maintain the buffalo's status as a dangerous high prestige prey so still actually good.
>>5154937Even park rangers stay back from buffalo, they are not dumb like bison and can ambush hunters.
>>5154880based jannies doing their job for once
>>5154971That is a point considering 3 africans with AKs and a hilux can cause a localized extinction and only dont because of trophy hunter money, and trophy hunters purposefully use crippled, ineffective iron age tier weaponry
>>5154850>BovidOX STATUS?
>>5154768he died when the cow had sex with him
>>5154780herd animalyou try to kill one of them and his best friend sneaks up on you
TOTALPOACHERDEATH
>>5154966Well, you already kill small children every day at kentucky fried human, so why not.
>>5155647False equivalence. Animals are not people. Literally never ever comparable. >>5155522That’s actually really unusual for herd animals.
>>5155650>False equivalence. Animals are not people.I agree, but the person I am replying to gave animals equal importance to small children.
>>5155652I was just pointing out that the funding conversation bit can easily be done without the trophy hunting, and that no-one would accept a similar argument for other charitable works, except maybe refugees come to think of it.
>>5155670>I was just pointing out that the funding conversation bit can easily be done without the trophy hunting,They have to draw funding from multiple sources. You have a toddler's understanding of financing.
>>5155681Yes, there are multiple sources, which means no need for the one that kills more animals. Don't you see the irony in that?
>>5155681And equally cancer research could draw funding from hunters of the terminally ill, or if you don't like to draw equivalence to killing humans vs animals, it could just be >I'll pay you to slap the shit out of cancer patients. No-one would praise that.
>>5155643He's obviously not a poacher thoughHe paid for the animal, and had the legal right to kill it. Do zoomers think all hunting is poaching now?
>>5155693Your implicit argument is that hurting large, exotic animals is wrong in and of itself. My implicit argument is that hurting large, exotic animals is not inherently wrong, but rather anything driving towards their extinction is wrong, because it disrupts ecosystems and derives us from the pleasure of viewing them in the wild. Trophy hunting is compatible with my position.
>>5155713I'm not making an argument that trophy hunting is wrong (I think it is, but that is not the argument I'm making).I'm saying that they do not deserve any praise for some of their money going to help conservation efforts when it comes with the rather hefty string of killing a rare animal attached. Why not give the money to conservation charities and then go shoot a horse? Why not give the money and not shoot anything as many other people do without being praised for it?If I set up a charity that drives donators around letting them shoot stray cats and dogs with all the money going to shelters, I would expect to be arrested for animal cruelty, not lauded by anons for my charity work.
>>5155011Fuckin kek
>>5155848>rareNot only are they not, they’re slated to be killed anyways, because africans are actively encroaching on habitat to, yknow, feed themselves, and need to control wild game populations to maintain healthy herds that their own people can hunt from if needed (like we used to in yellowstone). Trophy hunters literally pay to do ngubykkeleyma and wgembnkehyehububu’s wildlife management work for them. The meat goes to local tribes. The animals die and get eaten either way. It’s a risky donation. Trophy hunters pay to do a shitty dangerous job for someone else.
>>5156691>shitty dangerous jobYou're more at threat of wildlife attack when hunting in the wilderness here in the US than you are at any of these African safari rides through what is not too dissimilar to a farm.The guy who did this (and then died) was a millionaire, acting like he's doing some benevolent act is crazy work.
>>5156700>he had more money than me so he wasnt capable of doing goodHe donated a fucktonne of money to poor villagers for the privilege of trying to put down an angry cow using purposefully shitty sporting equipment. Make no mistake. They would have riddled it with 7.62x39 eventually. People like you are why I’m joining ICE. Total leftist deportation.
>>5155848>If I set up a charity that drives donators around letting them shoot stray cats and dogsGreat idea. We don't need any cats destroying ecosystems and dogs mauling kids on tricycles.
>>5155848Wild animals are not the same as escaped pets>>5156734Your name is abdul
>>5154768These things are deadlier than big cats.
>>5154768>lion prides that primary hunt buffalo usually steadily decline and scatter because of frequent casualties on the huntBeing a lion is hard enough without the dumbest hominids on earth driving you to extinction
