Animal trophy hunting

  • Animal head hunting

Claim

The trophy hunter does not kill as natural predators do by selecting the oldest or the weakest. The trophy hunter seeks the finest animals, thus eroding the long-term ability of the species to maintain itself through elimination of the animals with the most valuable genes.

Trophy hunting is a violation against the laws of nature, an aberration unknown among mentally healthy predators. Only domesticated cats and dogs exhibit such behaviour.
