I am sure you have already heard the story by now, but if you haven’t then here is a breakdown.
Breakdown
13 year-old Beloved Lion, Cecil, who once stayed at Hwange National Park, was recently killed, beheaded and skinned by a U.S dentist and trophy huntsman, Walter Palmer. This iconic Lion was on of Zimbabwe’s most popular and well known attractions, however, Palmer decided it would be good idea to fly to Zimbabwe and pay a man $55,000 to lure the Lion out into the open, simply for the ‘pleasure’ of killing him. Palmer managed to injure the Lion with an arrow from his bow but was not successful in killing him till around 40 hours after the arrow initially hit. The Lion’s head was later cut off to be used as a trophy, his body was skinned, and the rest of his body unused. Palmer even tried to remove the Lion’s tracking caller – but failed.
Trophy hunting (as well as any other forms of hunting) is a huge problem in our society today, many of the world’s most endangered species are “ok to kill” and are “not illegal”, for example, some of the exotic and endangered animals that are on the “hunt-able list” consists of White Rhinos, Elephants, leopards and many more. Did you know that around 2000 species go officially extinct every year? That is about 4-5 species every day! – According to statistics.
Results from killing Cecil the Lion
According to the Zimbabwean Tourism Authority, the hunt was illegal and a full criminal investigation is now under way. Cecil’s death is going to upset more than just his fans, Cecil’s other 24 cubs have a chance of being killed by the other adult lions, unless some kind of new enclosure is made for these cubs, they will probably die.

Palmer has recently been forced to close down his dental office due to the amount of hate and threats he has been getting from locals, even those who do not stay around Palmer’s area have been outraged, the online community has successfully managed to force Palmer into shutting down his website as a response to all of his threats.
Locals in the area have decided to cover Palmer’s dental office door with
signs, stuffed animals and toys as a memorial for Cecil
This here is the last ever photo of the living Cecil, Rest in peace

Cecil’s story has really made a lot of people much more open to hunting and what the results of it can actually consist of, many people do not actually know any of the ending environmental or lifely effects that hunting causes, or how many animals are actually going extinct every year. Hunting is something that needs to stop, man kind is slowly killing off millions of beautiful creatures each year with no thought about it what so ever.
Even Donald Trump’s two sons have been having fun murdering animals recently, were they took out some exotic animals such as a giraffe and an elephant, again, in Zimbabwe.

you know what you did you murdering bastard, turn yourself in, pay for your crimes. its pukes like you that we dont get to see animals that have been hunted to extinction. you are worthless, will always be worthless and if i had my way id give you a toothpick and set you free amongst these magnificient creatures and let them hand out your justice. youre very lucky that im not the one in control of your fate you scum bag. dont ever cross paths with me cuz im not afraid to tell you how it is to your face. youve destroyed your carreer and probably your social life. you disgust me like no other.
you’ve got issues man…calm down, it’s a freakin animal, not a human being…doesn’t seem right to me to destroy the life of a human over a freakin animal….get your priorities right.
Priorities are straight, life is life human or animal, and a killer deserves more than this, this is how its gonna be so if u retarded rednecks wont be part of the solution ure a fkin plague. No one ever said humans are more important.
You know what? You sound like a freaking animal.
That was meant for al
So… You think the same about ants, flies, spiders etc.? That if I kill a spider I should be put to death? What about hunting because you need to keep a population down to avoid disease and things like scabies? That happened in my county during the 70s, there were som much deer that the planes on the mountains were “ruined” because of all the deer, because of this there were not enough food and the deer were starving to death, so they had to make hunting legal again. Starvation both in summer and the snowy winters, disease etc.
Clarification; I do not agree with what he has done here, there are exceptions when it comes to hunting like not killing animals that are endangered, but also killing animals that can be a danger to a population (for example what wolves can become in Norway and Sweden).
If we’re talking about keeping a population down to avoid the spread of disease, look at our own population.
People tend to forget the people are animals too.
I have a theory that the less people we have on the planet, the less idiots we’ll have to deal with because:
A) If we take out 90-95% of the human population, our cities won’t be nearly as crowded and thus less chances of running into people and having to circumstantially deal with their idiocy.
B) People will be at a population number that’s sustainable for other forms of life to thrive as well, thus recreating the respect for wildlife that our ancestors (no matter WHERE you’re from) had.
C) More reason to actually work for the things you need instead of having the time to destroy your intellect by mindlessly scrolling through social media.
Ok look I am a Conservation Officer, and you are ALL looking at the situation the wrong way. Cecil being killed is not wrong because of his popularity with the public, or because he is a beautiful animal. It is wrong because Lion’s among many other species are endangered. If you wanna go hunt Deer, Geese, etc that is fine with me….in fact I myself am a hunter. However this man does deserve to loose his right to hunt. Man kind needs to realize how close we are to destroying everything that makes our world beautiful. Personally I think Cecil had more rights than any human being does. Lions are extinct in 80% of their natural territory, and very much worth protecting. Lions, Polar bears, Leopards, Most large primates, Pandas, and many other beautiful species are only a few years from being extinct forever. there are over 7 Billion people in the world, and that number doubles every 10yrs or so. By far humans are the most destructive force ever to effect the planet. So who do you think really has more right? To me and most people I know animals should have the same right as people…unless they do get overpopulated to the point that they are not at risk of endangerment to the species itself.
You just dont get it.. This is a beloved animal its like killing sylvester stallone you don’t get awat with it.
And still you shouldn’t kill because you think its fun.
I think you got issues man..
You’re wrong “al”. There aren’t that many lions left on earth now, mainly due to the actions of selfish human beings. Lions are more valuable than human beings and that dentist barely qualifies as human. He doesn’t represent any species I’m proud to be a part of. Someone needs to help men in this country and the planet in general to learn what matters in life and to stop living according to antiquated ideas of machismo. Walter Palmer is a dumb aszhole who deserves everything he’s getting and more
no it seems pretty much fair he’s a dentist anyway they are not real doctors
Sorry but I don’t see how humans deserve more respect than animals. Both are living things and have feelings. Now this whole thing might be a bit too much, that’s for sure, but saying a human life is worth more… Yeah, not everyone shares that opinion
So you’re telling me your life is more important than the life of that lion? And why is that? Because you have a job, a tv, a smartphone and a car? That son of a bitch killed a dozen endagered species only to jackoff seeing their heads hang against his living room. Stop thinking your life is more important than a life of an average defenseless animal because we’re all made of the same shit
I am enraged at Dr. Palmer for getting away with this. This is a sociopath for sure. If a person can kill an animal like he did and think it is ok,this is a person that has no conscience and apparently there are a lot of these kind of people. I totally agree with John doe. It makes me furious that Dr. Palmer is allowed to live his rich life without any punishment. Animals deserve to have rights and be treated well just like humans. Animals have feelings just like humans and they feel pain and grief as well as joy and happiness. I am just a old lady that does not have a lot of money but if I did, I would personally sue this piece of crap and get justice for Cecil. I would hire detectives to watch Dr. Palmer night and day and I bet he has killed more than animals with the same demonic smile on his face. This man is evil through and through and so is anyone else that kills like this. He deserves to be punished right along with child molesters and serial killers.
Jerk….people need to respect every life…I applaud John!
You are wrong, we are a lot in this world, humans are the vermin and we don’t need shitty humans around!.
NO actually YOU “AL” are the one with issues………as a human you need to be more responsible, having said that, I would like to see all hunters hunted to death !!!!!!!
Humans are NOT my favourite people anyway, they are a CANCER on this planet, and YOU……AL…..are one of the reasons I feel this way !!!!!!!
If you feel this way so kill yourself there’ll be less cancer on earth.
Its only because of people like you, such magnificent creatures dont see a new dawn. Do you consider killing/murdering and then skinning, humane at all irrespective of the fact what animal it is?
btw sorry for your narrow thinking but i think i should help you out, humans are also animals, who gave you the right to consider what you cant do to to humans you can do to poor creatures who cannot even speak?
BEWARE AL,
I see the internet coming for you.
that lion had more of a right to live you idiot, because thats all he wanted to do…just live…betrayal dosnt exist in the animal world…only among humans
It’s not just “a freakin animal”. Endangered animals are far more important than anyone who feel little enough about them to kill one. This man doesn’t deserve to die but he more than deserves to have every other good part of his life ruined.
I don’t know what he deserves,. Personally I think he should rot in a cell with his “trophy” on the wall to look at every freakin’ day. What needs to really happen is he should not be allowed to keep Cecil’s head as a trophy, he knew he obtained it illegally so it should go back to the Zimbabwe government, and the Zimbabwe government wants him extradited back to them for trial, and he should be. He is done over here.
I think you’re the one with issues mate ! You have to be a callous bastard to do what he done. To kill a beautiful animal for a “trophy” disgusts me. It may to you only be an animal but animals have families and they also feel pain. They have as much right as any human to live out their life in peace. If a lion killed a human that would be a tragedy but it’s ok for a human to kill a lion and we are meant to be civilised! One word. Psychopathic!
Fuck You Al. That lion was majestic as fuck and you sound like a psychopath.
sorry, but all life is sacred…. Besides it’s proven that if a human can kill animals, he can kill humans too. It’s a very small step.
peace.
Walter Palmer, like all other “sport/trophy-hunters”, is a c**t. There are no issues there at all.
To take an animals life with complete disregard to it’s position in the social structure that it occupies just reflects what a shallow, selfish person he is. I hope he feels proud looking at Cecil’s dead head hanging on his wall.
His actions have and probably will continue to degrade all human lives by slaughtering our wildlife.
I hope he and other pieces of sh*t like him end up in a Zimbabwe gaol.
I’m so happy his life is so fucked up, what a piece of shit, and anyone who feels remorse for him, I pity you too for not having the gift to love animals!
This is just a cruel and sicking act! Wild animals are beautiful creatures who deserve to be left in peace not hunted because you want to hang a trophy of your kill on the wall. Walter James Palmer, (the man who killed, beheaded and skinned Cecil the Lion) do you feel like a big man now huh? You make me SICK as do the other hunters out there who kill for pleasure. Can’t seem the joy in taking a life! I don’t feel sorry for you or your lost career.
hy
over a stupid lion i would kill another one lol
And you’d get sorted out as well. Douche bag.
No…it’s not just over one lion. It’s also over his cubs. It’s about being a bitch trophy hunter. It’s about lack of empathy do a dying species. it’s about people realizing that we are killing off other living creatures for no reason just for pleasure. It’s about us realizing that if we continue the human Race will eradicate itself. Keep killing nature and eventually the circle is broken and there will be no hope for humanity.
That’s so right Angela.. Well said! 🙂
The funny thing is that all of you hunters are fucking pussies, just with a gun in your hands you feel brave. I have fuck a lot of you inside a ring or in a bare hand fight, beacue all of you are cowards!.
How do you know the lion was stupid? How do I know you are not.
Imagine, would you please, one of those post-apocalypse zombie movies where there are a limited number of humans left and they are practically helpless against the zombies.
We are the zombies, the humans are lions. View this situation from their perspective, doucheburger. We’re probably one of the least necessary species on the planet. They are responsible for an entire ecosystem.
I would respect this article a lot more if proper grammar and spelling had been used.
SANDRA BLAND, do NOT forget her!!
and I’d have no problem killing you Vemius
Maybe do to him what he did to Cecil.might deter others
Actually, according to UNILAD, there is something about Cecil’s brother is said to have taken care of the cubs to protect them. I do not know if it is true, because UNILAD, but maybe it actually has happened 🙂
Equip lions with small automated “drone” guns on their backs so they shoot back at poachers
I don’t know where to start. This narcissistic psychopath Dentist has been hunting/murdering animals since he was a child. This is my impression/opinion of him, I could be wrong I’ve never met him and I am in no way a professional person or highly educated.
1. He appears unable to feel real empathy with other living beings.
2. Probably very manipulative and will easily gain a patients trust.
3. Able to mimic emotions, despite his inability to actually feel them, and can appear normal to unsuspecting living beings.
4. He is well educated and HELD a steady job. So good at manipulation and mimicry that his patients never suspected his true nature.
5. When committing his crimes, he carefully planed out every detail in advance and often had contingency plans in place.
6. Is highly organized and generally may offer few clues for authorities to pursue.
7. Maybe he has an underdevelopment of the part of the brain responsible for impulse control and emotions. Possibly a result of his genetics?
8. Appears to dissociate emotionally from his actions, regardless of how terrible those actions are.
9. Probably views his innocent victims/takes/kills/trophies as objects to be tormented and violated for his amusement.
10. His only regret is he got caught.

The identities of some of these big game hunters should be made public. There are big game hunting clubs that must have members lists. Trophy hunting is unacceptable, and the vast majority find it repulsive. Perhaps by publishing the list of the big game hunters can we see this deplorable practice deterred.

Trophy hunting is wrong Cecil should not have been killed but hunting and using every part of the animal is a proper way to hunt. I hunt almost year around but the hides are used for clothing and the meat is eaten and the bones used for different purposes. Even the internal organs are used or eaten.Saying all hunters are wrong or puss is is not a fair or accurate statement and to the dumb ass that says he can take a hunter in a fist fight well let me know I’ll get you my address and when I am done with you I am sure so.eone will pick up what’s left.
Are you really 5 years old?
I am a hunter, and this guy is a disgrace. I know it isn’t a popular sentiment to admit to hunting right now, but hunters, REAL hunters, have a “code”. We do not hunt the endangered, we use every bit of what we kill… but what this guy did sickens us all. To pay money to kill this particular animal… it was a power trip, nothing more. This cocksucker just wanted to feel like a big man. There isn’t enough that can be done to damage his practice and reputation to make me feel like it is even. Hunters are supposed to respect what they kill, honor it, thank it, carry the spirit of the animal in their heart… this s it was just about killing, and hunters like that make me worry for what they would do to other human beings.
best comment I’ve seen on here
How you can say that you kill an animal and you respect him or you care about his heart ,all the hunters are the same, cecil has felt the same feeling that an animal you kiiled felt, the humans are destroying the nature , also you’re killing only for your pleasure , #JusticeForCecil #OpFunKill
There is hug difference between a real hunter and Palmer. I hunt but I eat what I harvest. My entire family benefits with any animal I harvest. I spend 400 on licenses every year plus pour thousands into the local economies i hunt it.how many of you anti hunters put 5 into conservation of animals. Palmer is a douche bag but don’t confuse him with a hunter he’s a poacher. I would never hunt an endangered animal or one I would not eat.
Their is a huge difference in what this SCUMBAG did . To somebody that hunts and puts food on the table. This piece of garbage killed a treasured animal with a tracking collar on . And then waisted the remains . It was not only a waist but a disgrace . This man should be punished to the full extent of the law . And anybody who is supporting this man . You are garbage as well

An endangered species is more important than the hunters who kill them just because humans are not endangered. If these people are allowed to carry on killing there will be no animals for future generations. I think killing any person or living creature is wrong but when it comes to survival of a species and if the hunter or poacher will not change voluntarily then any means to stop them is ok with me.
