I think it’s great that one of our own is mentioned. Thanks for standing up for our community.

So 38 permits for 33 hunters. Hmmm.......someone must’ve gotten greedy.

Is there any information on where the majority of these animals came from, and what some of the criteria was to allow them to be imported?

Ok, how are they going to be shipped back? Tramp steamer. IIRC, the girly men led airlines won't do it.


In other news, KUDOS! to Mr. Phillip Glass for his exceptional endeavors in the cause of conservation.

Let them detest you! For what its worth, I, and I suspect everyone else here admires what you have done.

You must be one of those "deplorables". Welcome to the club.

LMAO - I love reading the comments section of these articles. It is a shame they make someone log in to post, I would just keep referring them to the ted talk.

These greenies will never get it. Philip if I would have known how famous you would get, I would have waited a day to meet you in Namibia in 2016. That way one day I could tell my grandkids I shared a camp with Philip Glass. Keep up the good work. I am off in three days to SA and Zimb.

If in this country and a lot of the civilized world, the grocery stores closed for a week, 90% of the population would starve to death. Along those same lines, the #1 automobile theft deterrent in this country is stick shift.

Yes Please any of you who have successfully navigated the new permit “case-by-case” system criteria please tell us here how and what you did?

 

[Hutch01]

Good thinking Fred! Please share!

The funniest part of this article is how the writer explains that many of those acquiring permits had ties to the Republican Party. What a shock!
I was sure they were supporters of gun-grabbing Democrats!

The writer was clearly implying that the USF&W services new “case-by-case” permit system is a pay to play $cam for rich Republican Party insiders.

A classic propaganda ploy to divide and alienate the hunting community while stirring up further outrage in the Alt.-Left Anti-Hunting crowd.

Well, this pauper wishes more "rich" guys would go hunt in Africa. I say more power to them! I love reading their hunting reports.
