The Giraffe Picture

[sp1814]

Can anyone help me understand why someone would do this?

I mean, it's not as if giraffe numbers need to be kept down, or there's a massive market for giraffe-skin trousers.

So..why?

At least with poaching there's a reason (ecomonics - sale of fur, rhino horns, ivory etc).

But giraffes???

The League against cruel sports covers competitive angling as well ,so blind eyes are not turning so to speak. I can totally understand people fishing edible fish they are going to consume but trophy fishing or competition fishing where they put the fish back is totally wrong in my eyes as the fish are often returned to the rivers damaged and consequently die a slow death. I'm confused what you mean by 'French Hunters' -so people go on hunting trips to capture the French?

Some women do but they have to be rich.
