Omit no chance to do disgusting things

Trump admin. to reverse ban on elephant trophies from Africa

The Trump administration plans to allow hunters to import trophies of elephants they killed in Zimbabwe and Zambia back to the United States, reversing a ban put in place by the Obama administration in 2014, a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service official confirmed to ABC News today.

Even though elephants are listed as endangered under the Endangered Species Act, a provision in the act allows the government to give permits to import these trophies if there is evidence that the hunting actually benefits conservation for that species. 

The official said they have new information from officials in Zimbabwe and Zambia to support reversing the ban to allow trophy hunting permits.

Just part of that routine corruption I wrote of below in a post about tyranny and Robert Mugabe, of the sort that The Duce so much admires in authoritarian regimes.

Lions next in line of fire as US rolls back curbs on African hunting trophies

Hunting interests have scored a major victory with the Trump administration’s decision to allow Americans to bring home body parts of elephants shot for sport in Africa. Another totemic species now looks set to follow suit – lions.

As the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) was announcing it was lifting a ban on the import of elephant “trophies” from Zimbabwe and Zambia, it also quietly published new guidelines that showed lions shot in the two African countries will also be eligible to adorn American homes.

“This all suggests that rather than being the protectors of wildlife, the federal government is now a promoter of trophy hunting,” said Wayne Pacelle, president of the Humane Society of the United States.

The restrictions being rolled back were put in place by the hated administration of that Kenyan-born foreigner, Barack Obama.

What?

Fifty or more years too late to play at being Ernest Hemingway, or one of his brave white hunder characters, isn't it?

Hunting these animals, now, is like poaching buffalo in the American West, all the while pretending be TR.
