They don't have the balls to say what they really do. They don't say they shot their prey or killed it. They say they "took" it.

They also say they "took the trophy" instead of the more accurate "sawed their head off".

If you have to santize your actions with euphemisms, maybe you shouldn't do them in the first place.
