I personally don’t feel Palmer’s laundry is all that clean and he likely should get his day in court; but I thought in America at least, you are considered innocent until proven guilty!
50 grand would go a loooong way at his local Shelter or the World Wildlife Fund.50 thousand dollars! Money makes people stupid and stupid people stupider.
btw: I’ve hunted, for food, since I was a kid. This dentist is purely a “trophy hunter”, only looking for a head or hide to show off his “prowess”. He’s also been illegal before, and is scum, not a “sportsman” or “hunter”, just a killer of the rarest wildlife he can find a way to pay to kill even if they’re essentially caged critters. Please, don’t call this guy a hunter.
Congratulations, Dan, on a very appropriate and timely strip. The dentist needs a hunter from 4 footed animal species to hunt/kill him and mount his head on the “den/lair/cage” wall. Seems proper to me that he suffers what the exotic animals have suffered at his lack or common sense..
I’m glad to see that "trophy hunting is being critisized as it should be. It’s past time since we should have recognized that All animals are sentient beings, feel love, fear, pain, and joy.Anyone with a pet knows that already.
Somebody needs to stalk that dentist, shoot him with a crossbow, trail him for 40 hours as he slowly dies, and then finish him off with a gun. That would be the perfect justice. >:(
The $50,000 bucks that he paid is used to keep the animal preserve staffed and funded, it’s not like the money went to some corrupt government. The guy had a guide who lead him to this lion. Yea, it is too bad, and yea he was ‘trophy’ hunting, but still the lion is an animal and the dentist is a human being. My God, 90% of you want to castrate or kill this guy. It sure is nice to live in America where all we have to do is read headlines and fake outrage.

Drill the dentist, it isn’t his first criminal act as a “hunter”. (Next courageous act will be shooting ’em in cages.)

Let’s put that dentist in the chair and re-enact a scene from “The Running Man”. r r r r r r-scre e e e! “Is it safe?”

^It’s a nod to “Je Suis Charlie [Hebdo],” not a French version of the strip.

Mighty hunter pays guide to point him at lured lion. So he can feel like a real man.
