This is sort of like Hemmingway meets Orwell in the Scarlet Letter.

Mankind as a whole is constantly encroaching on all large animals. When the ratio is 100 million to one (or whatever) just our very existence is the problem. He shot one but all of us have collectively killed all the others.

So yes I'm good good good pat myself on the back and that rich dentist is bad bad bad. I'm so glad that I'm good!!!

He shot it with a crossbow but was too much of a hack to score a kill shot so the lion got away and then suffered for over 40 minutes until he was able to re-track it down and kill it with a rifle. Plus the way he lured it out of the preserve was total douchy.

I hate people that kill game just for trophies. Hate, hate, hate.

Exactly. What a pos, for him to try and clean this all-up with this b.s. "apology" which only apologizes for inconveniencing his patients. This guy has killed many animals and for what? The guy is total douchebag.

Alllllll of this

Even the sight of a dead lion upsets me, I am unable to understand why someone would want to be responsible for killing one.

The singular threat to all wildlife is the same. It's not some jerkoff with a bow. The problem is the lack of balance. There are too many people. 200 years ago the area I live in now was loaded with eagles, osprey, alligators, and black bears. If a bear or an alligator comes walking down my street it gets killed. Why? Because we live here. People. All the space that we demand for living, agriculture, transportation, energy, manufacturing, and so on is space stolen from the rest of the natural world. Everyone of us is guilty. Our existence is predicated on NOT sharing.

You do realize you're exactly like who you're talking about, right? If you're going to bitch about humanity, then fine, but don't get on a hypocritical high horse over it.
