Paul Ray Geiger Jr. spent about $600,000 to build this 2,500-square-foot building dedicated to his familys hunting trophies on their roughly 14-acre property in Richmond, Texas. A 52-year-old designer of offshore oil rigs and a lifelong hunting enthusiast, Mr. Geiger said he aimed for a clean, minimalist look for the space, with exposed wood beams and white walls to better highlight the trophies. There are over 100 recessed lights in the ceiling to illuminate the animals.

I like the articles where the hunter is killed because the weapon mis-fired at the worst possible moment, or the hunter gets tramples and/or gored or otherwise flattened. I'm all in for the killing of trophy hunters by their prey. For the sake of the animals being targeted, I wish it would happen more often.

It's just never enough of ANYTHING, specially when it comes to killing animals.
