What a lowlife. The GoDaddy CEO is currently hiding behind the crop damage issue, which yes, can be an issue. The reality of Big 5 hunts is that they are
targeted at ultra-wealthy types who pay tens of thousands of dollars to
kill
elephants, lions, buffalo, leopard and rhinos. When I was in Africa, I
heard
countless stories about people like this. If they were a bad shot (they often
have this problem) then the safari crew will dope the animals so that they're
easier to kill.
The fact that Bob Parsons chose Zimbabwe also says a lot. In an economy where
inflation is out of control and the infrastructure is in chaos, they love people like Parsons who will pay cash to so whatever they want. That's why cowardly hunters choose Zim over a country such as South Africa. He was taking
advantage of a poverty stricken region for her personal obsession with killing
for bragging rights. Nobody else would sit on the elephant and take photos if
it was anything else.
There really is no debate about killing an elephant like this. Elephants have a
very structured society and killing the dominate female can destroy the entire
community. (It may have been a male in musth by glancing at the photo.)
They
are extremely sensitive animals. PETA nailed it when they named him "the scummiest CEO."
