American trophy hunters have done it again, this time in Scotland. They have killed and posted smiling pictures of themselves with the animals they have killed. Of course they killed the best and the strongest.

The only good to come out of this is a review of the Scottish "cull" laws that allow the killing of wild goats.
I don't support culls of any kind, but I support even less the kind of killing that celebrates the death of a beautiful animal.
Worse, the trophy hunters are not culling animals to control their numbers. They come in and kill the best of the species.
There is something very twisted about rejoicing in killing a beautiful creature.
We need to fight trophy hunters where ever they turn up. No part of the world is safe from them.
