Texas Tech Students Hunting Photos Cause Uproar

[Hearttoheart]

You can't really call her a fame whore without calling all of Hollywood and most politicians the same! This obviously is a hobby of hers. Obviously her family encourages this hobby. If she wants to capitalize on this hobby, more power to her!

She wouldn't be darting rhinos to help the local vet fix a broken leg is she didn't have compassion for animals.

My own daughters hunt and often post pictures of themselves with their "trophies" on Facebook. We then process the animals for food and use the hides for pillows, rugs, throws etc. nothing is wasted. Neither of them is looking to star in a reality series. They just want to share with their friends the victories of the hunt.

Don't be too hard on a girl who had been encouraged by her family her whole life to hunt animals. From a woman who's family owns a wild game ranch, there is a such think as responsible hunting and wildlife management.

I'm not hard on her for hunting. I understand why people hunt.

What bothers me personally is that she is standing over a dead animal that is considered to be endangered, or nearly endangered. She's smiling and gloating over her kill of these animals.

I think if she had the same pose/smile with deer, which is not considered to be endangered, then this would not even be news.
