Gentlemen please.

The hype is standard bullshit. Everyone knows that.

But we need to remember that perception can often be worse than reality. The minority that would cause ethical and dedicated hunters to be perceived as bunch of bloodthirsty and trigger-happy spotlight-shooting morons are the ones that can quickly ruin it for everyone.

This is not a left versus right story.

This is most likely about some a-hole and his either unscrupulous or (possibly) socio-economically cornered/desperate outfitter combined with a Zimbabwean {HEAVY stress on the "quotes"} "landowner", and the questionability of shooting a collared lion on the border of a national park.

Anyone who is prepared to insert their name into such a description please do so.

And BTW, what is the accomplishment in shooting a Lion (or any other animal) that is generally accustomed to human presence? You can buy trophy heads on E-Bay for a lot less than the cost of a hunt.

If we as the hunting community can't or won't police ourselves then we need to accept and be prepared for someone else to do it.

Yes times have changed.

We need to remember that lest they change even more and not in our favor.
