Interesting................it's okay to kill a mountain lion or two in the US if it messes with you kid. It's okay to kill the alligator too. But for the poor folks in Zimbabwe or wherever, don't touch the lions, even if they hard your children, cattle or whatever.

"Pitkin Sheriff's deputies and a U.S. Forest Service officer went to the home and spotted a mountain lion nearby. A short time later, the Forest Service officer killed mountain lion.

Parks and Wildlife officials are on scene to examine the dead mountain lion and continue their investigation.

Officers also are looking for second mountain lion that had been spotted in the area earlier Friday."
 
You're right about that!
 
Good point!
 
So true....
 
Yup....

Funny how that works....
 
No media attention. It's easy to condemned people who don't they ARE being condemned.
 
She's damn lucky it wasn't a famous beloved lion with a name.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.
