Story must have gotten around by now.... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/wor...killer-revealed-as-American-dentist.htmlI figure folks here are uniquely qualified to comment on this. Birdwatcher

The information coming out is changing daily. It is interesting to watch the story develop, but IMHO enough data has not been vested to have an informed opinion.

It has gotten around, and it lacks the redeeming elements of the half-mil rhino story for sure. Someone's life is going to be turned to schitt here.

Things are bad enough for this man to have closed his practice and hire private security for his family.
It is a shameful showing of ignorance on behalf of misinformed agenda driven azzholes.

As a felon he is forbidden from possessing a firearm.
Separately, court records have shown that the dentist has a felony record in the US after killing a black bear in the state of Wisconsin in 2006.
Writing here is Prohibited by the authorities.

Everyone here on 24 should make sure with who you book your safari's. There are a lot of farms and PH's in the business who's only priority is to make money. You don't want to be in a world of trouble like this dentist.
Happy Hunting!

Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority is hauling the PH and farmer in question into court this week. I don't know what this means for the good Doctor.

I think it's too early to make a call on this one. What kills me in this case, or any similar case, are the comments posted by the liberal greenies. These people think nothing of killing an unborn child, but $hit a Twinkie when an animal is killed.

Just received a press release from SCI saying the memberships of the hunter and PH have been temporarily suspended pending further investigation.

Mike Isn't that the truth, Mike? Sad state of affairs nowadays.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Yes, it will be interesting to hear the facts and details. Mostly it seems an enraged press and public opinion have him convicted.
Folks sit around our parks and refuges all the time waiting for a trophy to put foot over the line. Ethical? Maybe, maybe not, but often technically legal if the critters cross of their own free will. Being part of a study and carrying a name offers little in the way of protection.
Regardless, it probably sucks to be him at the moment. Hope for his sake that he had his ducks in line.

“Two of Palmer’s local accomplices are already in custody. Zimbabwe authorities now actively seeking Palmer in connection with this incident,” the petition reads in part. “We urge the Secretary Of State John Kerry and the Attorney General Loretta Lynch to fully cooperate with the Zimbabwe authorities and to extradite Walter Palmer promptly at the Zimbabwe government’s request.” http://news.yahoo.com/letter-to-pat...e-lion-s-death-apologizes-165511095.htmlNo wonder hes in hiding. Basically he royaly screwed the pooch.

I'll try to find the photo(s) that were posted. Also previous hunt photos show a compound of some kind. I'm not versed enough to identify the brand.
