Hunting animals is just like golf, says Donald Trump as his sons pose with safari trophy kills

snip:
Other pictures emerged in 2012 of the Trump brothers standing next to animals they gunned down on two trips in 2010 and 2011 – including antelope, waterbuck, two buffalos, a great warthog and a civet cat.

Trump Snr defended his sons’ hobby of hunting on African kill safaris, saying: “My sons love to hunt. Eric is a hunter and I’d say he puts it on a par with golf, if not ahead of golf. They’re great marksman, great shots and love it. I like golf. I don’t do that.”


The Trumps would have been charged a hefty fee for every kill. The price list quotes £46,000 to hunt an elephant, up to £27,000 to kill a big cat and £6500 for a crocodile.

Donald Jnr said: “Hunting isn’t about killing. Hunting and fishing makes you fall in love with the natural world.”

hunting is nothing but sport. Killing is the only goal' If they wanted to fall in love with nature they would be shooting with a camera, instead of a gun.

They do not hunt for food, they hunt to kill, for trophies. Purely ego driven. Look at how manly I am. I killed an elephant and cut off its trunk. I took down a yuuuuge beast, I am strong! Fuck them.
