Outrage over Lion Pic Killer

The historical kill ratio between us both is way in favour of the Lions. I'd say we can safely kill another few of those glorified fire place rugs before God gets pissed with us.

Even though this is clearly a wind-up, I laughed at the thought of somebody being bitter about the Kill/Death ratio of lions relative to humans. Brilliant.

In an even fight over survival.

Cow going into a slaughter house is fixed there raised by humans and have no fear of them either i assume you complain about this as there animals too.

Do we have to go over the cows being killed for food and clothes shpeel again?

Guessing you have never seen a pack of lions tearing apart 1 hyena and not eating it ? nothing to do with survival it's about territory

Do you understand nature at all? The hyenas are direct competitors for food source. Yes its about survival.

Who am I to say what she did was wrong. When I eat meat, wear/wore animal clothing etc.

Next time you're munching on a nice streak. Think about this lion and that cow. I guess if she was to eat it or make a coat out of it - it would be 'different'? :pac:

Who's logic sounds crazy now

Yours still does. If she killed it with the primary motivation that she would eat it and wear its hide then yes but that not what happened was it?

You're still missing one major point - lions are verging on (of not already now) an endangered species.

Killing cows to eat is currently sustainable. If that changed and they were suddenly endangered then we'd need to think of finding another food source.

You have similar issues with overfishing, cod resources were dropping so alternative fish were found.

If there were as many lions in the world as cows, then I'd be happily munching away on lion. That's not the case though.

In fairness, if there's ever a choice between a high road and a low one, the view is better from the high one. And the air is cleaner.

There used to be a lion up there as well :mad:

Yeah. We had to lose the lion. Inedible.

King Juan Carlos of Spain recently went to Africa and shot an Elephant. Now considering they are huge thats not much of an achievement but I suppose It might be for him as he might have laid off the drink and mistress for a bit.

Whats even more shocking is that the worlds Tiger population is crashing mainly from poaching and habitat destruction. Its sad to think that within 20 or 30 years those beautiful animals may be gone.


Having grown up watching and learning about nature from Eamonn de Buitlear, Gerrit Van Gelderen and of course David Attenborough its sad to see our natural world disappearing slowly.

We seem as well recently to have a new problem with chinese medicine and their need to kill animals willy nilly for their products - whether that be Rhino Horn or Starfish.
