wheres the sport in shooting tame animals?bad show!!

[smiller350]

I love hunting,but hunting like this is just stupid and pointless.

[falloutnerd01]

Isn't shooting elephants...illegal?

[vlaad4444]

stupid people's games, what an achievment to kill an animal using a rifle, it's just cowardness!

[loghati]

isn't it beautiful to see such magnificent beasts fall to the bullets of rich men who travel thousands of miles to have them dead , and then give us headaches about these animals being " OK to kill at these places and these circumstances"?

[GrUnchable]

are they gonna eat those killed animals? or they just leave laying on the ground...

[LittleBonBon123]

NOOOO !!! PLEASE STOP THIS !!! PLEASE PLEASE ... D-:

[vtogvblog]

why did they shoot a leopard? deer, elk and moose are fine , but why the leopard it is endangered. I know this for a fact.

[randoriremix]

thanks to everyone for your responces but what i would like to know is what do you do with the animal my hopes are that you would use the meat and the skin for something. like i said i am a proud hunter but i hunt for pest control and for food

[peterm3964]

I will NEVER BUY HORNADY PRODUCTS after seeing this unrighteous bull****

[randoriremix]

@peterm3964 dont blame hornady they make good products, the advertising companies decide what they are going to do to promote the product, often big firms dont know whats being done till its been done, not saying thats the case here but we dont know for sure

[MrOttmandus]

Nothing wrong with big game hunting, but I agree hunting endangered animals is wrong. These guys are not killing for food or protection but just for the thrill of killing.

Killing for the thrill of it is borderline psychotic.

[james257wby]

Nothing in this video is endangered where it was shot.

[vtc4ever]

@james257wby so leopards,lions,elephants and rhinos in general are endangered species in curtain African countries.....so instead of killing them distribute them.

[james257wby]

@vtc4ever That may sound like a good idea, but you can't redistribute them to areas where it is impossible to sustain them.

[vtc4ever]

@james257wby man dont take me wrong.i LOVE hunting and everything but i cant deny that there is a better way to conserve these spectacular animals.i go to Tanzania every December to hunt bucks and cape buffalo's :).cuz i know that these animals are not endangered and we actually eat them after we hunt them.u cant eat a lion or a leopard.or an elephant O.o,,,my point is that there was successful projects to relocate endangered species.do u thunk hunting them for trophies is right?i dnt respect it

[james257wby]

@vtc4ever While I have no desire to shoot a lion etc. myself. It is a fact that by giving these animals a $ value, the local population is more likely to protect them rather than destroy them as varmints. Elephants are always eaten when taken by trophy hunters they provide a large source of scarce protein to the locals, where as an elephant poached for ivory or killed as a crop raider is left to rot. Sustainable hunting promotes conservation, lion or whitetail.

[lanberr]

thats what happens when u have to much money and nothing to do

[SuperSneakySteve]

Commin soon, Hornady's new Bald Eagle Buster Bullets!

[randoriremix]

mmmmm i love hunting and i am not criticizing anyone but please help me to understand why they are shooting endangered animals. i figure there must be a reason but i cant think of one. the only animals i shoot are pests in new zealand such as, rabbits, deer, possums, and goats. we dont shoot our endangered speces.

[72RR446]

@randoriremix it's my understanding that most of the(legal) hunting for elephant in Africa is for management purposes.there are some over population of elephants in certain areas.

[Turkalj]

@randoriremix Because the endangered species they are shooting are in Africa, and Africa has a massive poaching problem. By allowing safari hunters to hunt dangerous game and charging them crazy amounts of money, they are actually insuring the conservation of the animals and their habitat. If they weren't making money by letting white men hunt their animals they'd be making money by poaching them to extinction and selling their bodyparts for pennies on the dollar.

[theatwo]

@randoriremix Nothing shot was seriously endangered. Of the big five only the rhino is still in a bad way. Hunting is very well managed over there, and hunting is what days for the brunt of the conservation efforts.

[camerl2009]

@theatwo rhino's there 2 type over there one is endangered and one is not now only if i could rember witch ones witch

[theatwo]

@camerl2009 Yes, I think the White Rhino has made a big comeback but the Black Rhino is still not doing well.

[camerl2009]

@theatwo yea the white rhion thats the huntable one 

[theatwo]

@camerl2009 I believe you can hunt both via darting. I know for sure you can dart a white rhino, and SCI counts that toward your big five. Non-Dart hunting is rare and very expensive.

[camerl2009]

@randoriremix african elephants are far from endangered so is all african game and hunting in afirca brings money to africa and the meat go's to the african people

[MrTheoriginalderek]

@randoriremix The media would have you believe just that. Law abiding hunters respect the game they pursue, because they know that without them they would not be able to hunt at all, or else it would be against the law to hunt an "endangered" species. A poacher on the other hand, who hasn't the slightest regard for law and regulations ...shame on him.

[TheRiderOfSteel]

@randoriremix If you're referring to Elephant/Rhinocerous hunting, Elephant hunting is ENCOURAGED by African governments (under strict supervision, obviously) as a form of population control since Elephants are known to trample an average of 200 trees to get to a single branch which they then nibble and toss aside. And only the Black Rhino is endangered, not the White Rhino.

[democratichypocrit]

@randoriremix Are we not predators ourself? And dont stick your foot in your mouth and say animals only kill for food.

[randoriremix]

@democratichypocrit i dont think you quite got what i was asking, i am a preditor but game conservation must be paramount. my personal belief is tht endangered animals should be farmed, how many endagered cows or sheep or chickens have you heard of. but if that is not the case then we should allow these animals to breed back to original numbers or risk having no game to shoot, and if you are going to kill them use all of the animal dont just cut the head off mount it & leave the rest to rot.

[democratichypocrit]

@randoriremix Well, its apparent u have never been 2 Africa. Elephants r not endangered. After the shot u stand back & find yourself astonished & amazed at the natives. Within hours, of an elephant going down on a hunt, everything from the Elephant is gone, except 4 the gut pile. U wont see natives 4 days, but they know when an elephant goes down by what seems 2 be the entire village. So if u havent experienced that, then u honestly dont know what u r talking about. Elephants r not endangered.

[randoriremix]

@democratichypocrit In the ten years preceding an international ban in the trade in ivory in 1990 the African elephant population was more than halved from 1.3 mill to around 600k. An example of how the ivory trade causes poaching pressure is in the eastern region of Chad—elephant herds where as recently as 1970 there was an estimated population of 400,000; however, by 2006 the number had dwindled to about 10k. all you gotta do is look it up bro, numbers have doubled in the last 2 years though

[randoriremix]

@randoriremix Kenya was one of the worst affected countries with populations declining by as much as 85 percent between 1973 and 1989.Protection of African elephants has become high profile in many countries. The Kenyan wildlife service burnt a stockpile of tusks in protest against the ivory trade. But a number of states still permit sport hunting of elephants. and more of my digging reveals that the population has trippled in the last 6 months. see, i look suff up before i comment.

[randoriremix]

@randoriremix now for the final time i dont have a problem with hunting i kill stuff every weekend as new zealand doesnt have hunting seasons on deer or thar or chamious or goats or pigs or rabbits, as all are introduced & now at pest proportions, its not unusual to shoot 300 goats in a day or 5-6 deer in the right spots but, we as hunters here are concerned about conservation of our resourses. im glad the local tribes use everything, that was my main concern. so i do know what im talking about

[democratichypocrit]

@randoriremix I dont care what happens 2 the elephant. When did I say I was concerned? There is a difference between Ivory Trade & hunters. The Ivory Trade is motivated by profit & illegal poaching not licensed legal hunters. U r talking two different issues. The only numbers that mean anything 2 me, is the 1 reflecting my bank account.

Your argument falls on deaf ears. I will continue 2 hunt them as long as I have the desire. Its not what you think of me, its what I think that matters.

[randoriremix]

@democratichypocrit i didnt say you were concerned just that you said they wernt endangered when they are clearly on the vunerable list i am still arguing the same point that i started with i have no problem with hunting im sure you do it leagally and for you its fun, but if you dont kill it for ivory and you dont kill it for meat why do you kill it i have no objections to it but i hate waste if i kill something then i take it home and eat it, or give it to someone who will. & you started this

[democratichypocrit]

@randoriremix I kill it because I want to and I have the money to go on the hunt. Its not too difficult to comprehend for me.

If it is for you, well maybe you are over your head.

[MrGunsplosion101]

what a superbly done video!
