Here is the info on the man who killed Cecil, the lion in Kenya.

[Are_grits_groceries]

"Walter Palmer, a dentist from Minnesota, is believed to have paid £35,000 to shoot and kill the much-loved lion with a bow and arrow. The animal was shot on July 1 in Hwange National Park. Two independent sources have confirmed the hunter's identity to the paper, which has also seen a copy of the relevant hunting permit."

I hope his life is hell!!!

7. Oh he's taking a beating on Twitter and elsewhere.

His life will be hell.

[tenderfoot]

10. I hope so.

I hope it get so bad for him that he tops himself. He's a scumbag.

[erronis]

50. I'm guessing it's hard to commit suicide via bow-n-arrow, but someone will probably help.

[truebrit71]

11. You're not kidding...he is getting eviscerated on yelp...

Looks like his website is down as well....

Hopefully this fucker goes out of business...

[newfie11]

2. Lured him out of the park to kill him!

This jerk is killing polar bears, rhinos, etc.
The picture of him shirtless holding up a dead big cat he killed was beyond disgusting.
He just enjoys killing

[2naSalit]

33. That's basically the same tactic

used on the borders of Yellowstone NP by wolf "hunters". Wolves are curious and will investigate distress howls, so the "hunters" will hang out with loud speakers just outside the border of the park, lure wolves outside the boundary and shoot them when they cross the line. Hunters my ass, wildlife murderers is what they are. The thrill of killing is all they are into. I would only consider "hunting" valid if the wildlife were allowed to strike back and kill some humans who are trying to kill them... and actually succeed more often than not.

For his dental practice, he poses as a nature lover and photographer.

64. petition to who? Our gov. for wildlife- counts an entire petition as one complaint.

[Sunlei]

65. The cubs are dead. New male pride lion always kills the cubs immediately.

[Sunlei]

63. Thats how the wolves are lured out of yellowstone.they pile up carcasses and put out unguarded sheep

That's how some like "Nugent Bear hunt business" works..

They put out dead animals to attract bears. They even use horses, they buy a cheap auction horse for $10 dollars or snap-up some kids pet pony free off craigs list. Take it to their woods and shoot it, kill the horse in their bear hunting woods. Those dead animals attract bears from miles around.

[bvar22]

92. That kind of "hunting" would appeal to DIck Cheney,

but they would have to put the wolf in a cage, and let him out 10' in front of Cheney.
The ONLY thing worse than what this guy did is "hunting" caged animals.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

3. There's an obvious legal loophole that needs closed there.

I can understand that it might be legal to kill lions that wander outside of the protected area to safeguard those living outside. But any protected lion that wanders outside should NOT be eligible to have 'trophies' taken from it. The entire carcass should be required to be returned to the park.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

22. Very sensible idea. nt

[NewJeffCT]

28. Good idea

I'd also say that killing should be a last resort - if it's at all possible, send the lion back to the protected area

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

30. True, but obviously these guys were looking to poach him.

And I agree with the folks who say they should both be considered poachers and treated as such.

[olddots]

4. Oh Walter you're soooooooooo manly !

[polly7]

5. Hope he's hounded as a selfish, sadistic POS for the rest of his life. nt.

8. bow and arrow. nice. really want them to suffer

so at least they are consistent. the 1% ers abuse and exploit human AND nonhuman animals.

truly wretched and embarrassing representatives of the human species. shameful

[Paladin]

17. Exactly. That lion suffered a long, agonizing death via arrow.

That dentist needs to see his practice disappear, for starters. Sorry excuse for a human being.

81. 40 long hours

“It took them another 40 hours to find where the lion was and then they killed it with a rifle,” Rodrigues said.

And if they find him in the country, throw him and his enablers in jail.

Can he be sued by the Government of Zimbabwe?

Every tea partier within 100 miles will beg to do business with him.

75. no they won't. he's not answering his phone, his voicebox is full, and his practice is closed

at least this week. He's either on vacation or in hiding. Or both.

[Lurker Deluxe]

79. Really?

Because someone who disagrees with you politically condones poaching? You think real sportsmen/women admire trophy hunters?

You are wrong.

The majority of people who hunt have little use for trophy hunters, and stay as far away from poachers as possible. Let me know who comes running to speak up for this dickwad ...

Do not think you will find any takers.

[AllFieldsRequired]

84. sent the email to the guy who killed the animal

[Initech]

95. He's probably waiting for the right opportunity for a Go Find Me cash grab.

117. He has his own cash grab. He's a dentist he can drill 20 root canals and gain easy 20k

then cap/finish them and another 20k.

"Theo Bronkhorst, a professional hunter with Bushman Safaris, is facing criminal charges for allegedly killing a collared lion on Antoinette farm in Gwayi Conservancy, Hwange district on 1 July 2015," the statement said.

"All persons implicated in this case are due to appear in court facing poaching charges.

"Both the professional hunter and land owner had no permit or quota to justify the offtake of the lion and therefore are liable for the illegal hunt."

I wish there was someway to never allow him back into the US. How could any sane person think that what he did was OK. How on earth could you convince yourself that you were a great big deal for doing something so awful.

Big game hunters are just pure trash. I hope they all just go to some hell where they just get shot over and over and over for all eternity.

[Iggo]

69. Trophy hunters.

They walk among us.

[MH1]

99. I wish we could/would make this kind of hunting a federal crime

even when it occurs outside US borders. If a US citizen goes to a foreign country and kills an endangered or threatened species except under very limited circumstances; and especially if it violates the law of the foreign country; they should be prosecutable under US law in addition to being eligible for extradition to the country where the crime occurred.

Something like that. I'm not holding my breath, but we need the ability to punish these fuckers in a court of law followed by prison. Maybe then it would stop. Or at least slow down.

[leftyladyfrommo]

122. This is being covered by every news outlet out there.

It even made the Kansas City Star this morning. And it was a big article. Raw Story, Drudge. Everyone is running it.

Jimmy Kimmel did a whole thing about what a scumbag this guy is.

This guy is toast. And he should be. What he did was abominable. I just wish he was stuck in Africa and they could just keep him there and he could face a trial there. His argument that he had no idea what he did was wrong, it was all the guide's fault is just pathetic. They lured that poor animal out of the park on purpose so they could kill it. Tell me he didn't know what they were doing.

Trial by the internet and he has been found guilty and shunned from society as a total scumbag.

Sometimes that trial by internet thing bothers me but not in this case. Goes right along with that Veterinarian that shot the neighbor's cat with a bow and then posted a picture of herself and the dead cat hanging from the arrow. She's done. No Vet. clinic will ever hire her again and she may lose her license. I hope she does. The State of Texas isn't bringing criminal charges against her but she is still done. Even the school she graduated from put out a statement about her.

[leftyladyfrommo]

123. Maybe something good will come out of this tragedy.

The outrage over this is now worldwide. Drudge is running huge headlines. This story is everywhere.

The guards in Zimbabwe are on high alert. They are watching that pride constantly and it's not all bad news. The male that is left is Jericho and he is a very mature and capable male. There is a good chance that he will be able to protect the pride and the cubs that are so at risk right now.

God Speed Jericho.

Here's the information from the U.S. Attorney's Office:

Madison, Wisconsin -- Erik C. Peterson, United States Attorney for the Western District of Wisconsin, announced that Walter J. Palmer, 48, of Eden Prairie, Minn., pleaded guilty today in U.S. District Court in Madison to making a false statement to a federal agent in connection with the hunting of a black bear in Wisconsin.

The government proffered the following evidence at the plea hearing:
The hunting of black bears in the State of Wisconsin is regulated by state law and allowed only in specific geographical areas. When a licensed hunter kills a bear, Wisconsin law requires the hunter to immediately tag the bear and transport it to a registration station located within the zone or subzone in which the bear was killed.

On September 1, 2006, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) issued a license to Walter J. Palmer, authorizing him to hunt and kill a black bear only in Subzone A1 in northern Wisconsin. On September 30, 2006, Palmer, with the assistance of others, hunted and killed a black bear near Phillips in Price County, Wisconsin, at a location approximately 40 miles by vehicle outside of Subzone A1.
After the bear was killed, members of the hunting group noticed that Palmer's tag was for Subzone A1 and that the bear had been killed outside of that zone.

The members of the group, including Palmer, agreed that if any authorities were to ask where the bear had been killed, they would say

[moondust]

78. Same guy.

~

The Telegraph said it has “two independent sources” identifying Palmer as the man who killed Cecil after the lion was lured out of Hwange National Park. The newspaper added that it has seen a copy of the hunting permit.

~

During a nighttime pursuit, the hunters tied a dead animal to their car to lure the lion out of a national park, said Johnny Rodrigues, chairman of the Zimbabwe Conservation Task Force. The American is believed to have shot it with a crossbow, injuring the animal. The wounded lion was found 40 hours later and shot dead with a gun, Rodrigues said in the statement.

~

In 2008, Palmer pleaded guilty in federal court in Wisconsin to misleading a federal agent in connection with the hunting of a black bear. Two years earlier, Palmer killed a bear near Phillips, in Price County. That location was 40 miles outside where bear hunting was allowed at the time.

Palmer and others transported the bear carcass to a registration station inside the allowed hunting zone. At the station, he falsely certified that the bear had been killed in the legal zone. He then brought the bear to Minnesota.

People pay thousands of dollars to go sit in an air conditioned blind and kill animals that come to feeding stations to eat.

Its big business there. It's regulated by the state but that surely doesn't make it right.

[Sunlei]

60. we will start to have more and more, silent- idiot, ' poaching' bow shooters out there.

and yes the wealthy pay $50,000 and a lot more to shoot trophy wildlife in Africa.

Wealthy have resorts, huge breeding farms in Africa for 'canned hunts' complete with head/skins sent back home is legal.

Legal to bring back to USA even with endangered captive bred like rhino horns.

Then in America the trophy horns can be sold at auctions for a lot more then the canned hunt in Africa.

Even the wealthy braggers have said, they 'pay' a village to kill nuisance elephants.

Poachers like this lion killer, pay to kill too. This man just got caught but what will Africa do? ask for him to pay a fine?

and if this lion were truly a snagglepuss, why didn't he exit, stage left, even?

Mr. Palmer is on the run now. His dental practice is in ruins, his family and his shameful ass are in hiding. Life, as he has known it, is over. Fucking deal with it, Walter.

The news from Huffington Post includes a quote where he claims that his kill was "legal." Well, that really doesn't hold up to scrutiny, does it?

So here are your options:

1. Move to some remote corner of the earth and try to establish a dental practice that will support your family. Good luck there.

2. Surrender to the authorities and accept your fate. If you're lucky, you'll get to serve out a prison sentence in a third-world country. Hope your immunizations (TB, Hepatitis (all strains), HPV) are up to date.

3. Do the honorable thing and just throw yourself off a cliff, or into a large body of water where the crustaceans can feed off of your flesh just as you profited off of other creatures. Please do not throw yourself in front of a train or otherwise inconvenience the rest of humanity. You've done quite enough of that.

100. This was not Walter Palmer's first illegal hunt.

http://www.startribune.com/zimbabwe-2-to-appear-in-court-for-killing-cecil-the-lion/318828251/

Palmer, 55, who pleaded guilty to a license violation after shooting a black bear in Wisconsin in 2008,

Guilty plea in Wisconsin

The incident is not Palmer’s first brush with authorities.

In 2008, he pleaded guilty in federal court in Wisconsin to misleading a federal agent in connection with the hunting of a black bear. Two years earlier, Palmer killed a bear near Phillips, in Price County. That location was 40 miles outside of the zone where he held a permit to hunt bear. Palmer and others transported the bear carcass to a registration station inside the allowed hunting zone, according to court documents, and at the station, he falsely certified that the bear had been killed in the legal zone.

Facing a maximum penalty of five years in prison, Palmer was sentenced to one year’s probation and fined nearly $3,000.

In the spring of 2003, Palmer also was convicted in Otter Tail County in western Minnesota and paid a small fine for fishing without a license, a misdemeanor.

And in 2009, Palmer agreed to a settlement with the Minnesota Board of Dentistry over allegations that he sexually harassed a receptionist. She alleged that Palmer made comments about her breasts, buttocks and genitalia.

Without admitting guilt, Palmer settled and paid $127,500 to the woman, who also was his patient. The settlement included references to his bear-hunting conviction and “substandard record keeping.”

“I had no idea that the lion I took was a known, local favorite, was collared and part of a study until the end of the hunt. I relied on the expertise of my local professional guides to ensure a legal hunt.”

(What was he blind not to have noticed the collar?)

Walter J. Palmer of Eden Prairie, a practicing dentist in Bloomington and a prominent bow-and-arrow hunter, issued a statement addressing the killing on July 1 of Cecil, a lion that was a favorite among tourists and wildlife researchers

Considering they said that he lion suffered for 40 hours before Palmer managed to kill him, Palmer flat out tortured that poor animal. How can he claim to be a knowledgable big game hunter and be clueless that killing this beautiful animal would also result in the death of his cubs by the new dominent lion.

I hope that people boycott his practice and drive him into bankruptcy. He is a vile dispicable person.

[Arugula Latte]

108. Fucking sociopath.

I wish someone would shoot him up with arrows and leave him writhe in agony for days.

Everyone who works there needs to start looking for another job. Palmer needs to turn himself in and go face the music in Zimbabwe. I feel bad for his kids. His wife must have known what a shitstain he is (this was his 43rd!! kill) so I'm having trouble feeling sorry for her.

119. One thing. This man is no hunter. My family hunt to suppliment our food supply. We do not trap

animals so that they are an easy kill. He had two other people lure the lion out of a safe haven probably with food and then shot the lion. He was not hunting - he was using a lion for target practice.

He is now trying to tell us that he did not know the animal was from a game preserve or that it was collared. If he was close enough to use a bow and arrow he was close enough to see the collar. As to not knowing about the game preserve? I am assuming he was not just wondering around in the wilds of Africa without a map? They can add liar to the sign on his door.

The sign on his door says he is a coward and a killer. A very poor excuse for a man. The sign is correct.
