Fun Family Vacation: Kill a Giraffe
January 21, 2012 at 9:32 PM 2 comments
Tourist trophy hunters are paying thousands of pounds to go and shoot giraffes with high-powered guns and bows.
The gentle giants are loved around the world for their comical appearance and gentle nature.
Just like character ‘Melman’ played by Friend’s-star David Schwimmer in Disney’s Madagascar, they are a hit with kids who love their long necks and eyelashes.
But shocking images show how scores of big-spending men and women – and even families – travel from across the globe, some even from Britain, to kill them for sport.
We humans are going insane I say as my heart breaks for the little girl in this picture. Look at those happy faces and her hand on the dead giraffe.
So cool huh?

This is very shameful for any family if they think that hunting animals is a family fun activity. This is not funny from any point. These parents should be aware that this kind of things can make kids violent.
