I just read a story that said the animal in question was bred and raised specifically to be hunted. So this was perhaps a canned hunt?

If that's the case, this really isn't much different than the 25 BILLION animals that are bred and killed in the USA each year...though as I pointed out, I find it distasteful to shoot for trophies only.

What I found to be hypocritical were the people who signed the petition. I have no doubt that Ms. Bachman and her production team poured much more money into the local economy and conservation for that hunt than most people do in a lifetime.
