    Why do they give such ferocious animals such gay names?

    Jeez, the quality of journalism in that piece is the pits.
    When contacted on Saturday a woman who answered the phone said he was too devastated to speak.
    Who? Jericho?

    Humans truly have to be the most disgusting species to have ever roamed this earth.

    Are you sure this isn't a hoax?

    Cecil's facebook page earlier said it was a hoax.

    It sounds like a hoax.

    The outpouring of grief amongst well off white Americans, particularly the likes of Kimmel, for the big cats has prompted a backlash amongst those who have compared it to the lack of a similar reaction when black people are shot there...

    Yes I know, but it's not my point.

    My point is that you can care about people and also care about game poaching. Its not a case of pick one, ignore the other.

    I think there's always a certain amount of people that will go out of their way to show how much more socially aware they are by putting people down for reacting to or commenting on a high profile news story. I call them the Just Sayin' clowns.

    'Oh, 2 people died in a bomb in Glasgow? 15 villagers died in a drone strike in Iraq. Just saying... '

    Some of the arguments here are crackers. I mean you can care about two things at once. I was at my aunts funeral two years ago. No one came up to me and said "you're upset about this yet there's thousands starving in Africa you bastard!!"

    Sickening, how do people get off on this. This whole 'we kill just because we can' human mentality is psychotic. Who else but a psycho would get a trill out of shooting an animal for their own pleasure, and paying good money for the opportunity.

    Anyone caught shooting these beautiful animals should get life in jail.
