Challenge is when the lion could fire back with artillery.

We should have arenas where these "heroic" and "manly" hunters can face off one-to-one with animals in a fair test of their abilities.

Get's rid of these bastards and keeps the animals fed.

Or at least things that they can personally make from scratch. Not everyone can be Steve Irwin, though, and wrestle a croc out of the water with their bare hands.

Shit, you want marksmanship, I can kill the bullseye on a paper target at quite a range of distances (I shoot expert with a rifle, about 3 points short of distinguished expert, because I use hollowpoints, which sometimes "fly" to other points on the target. I'm going to have to quit being cheap with my ammo. Undecided I don't need to get a lion or rhino head for my "trophy wall".  That's disgusting, to me.

I've never fired a gun in my life.

Closest I've ever got to firearms was at a military display when I was a kid.

I picked up an old SLR (Self loading rifle) and was surprised just how heavy it was.  Then I picked up an M16, bracing myself for the weight, thinking it weighed the same as the previous rifle.  Over compensated and fell on my arse.

Most peops hold them horizontally and let them sweep across the field of fire. You're not a GI, are you? No offense meant.

Why don't the scumbags go hunt each other?  That would be a win-win.

My thought exactly: a real-life Battle Royale.

Great! In the sport of hunting I always root for the animals. Clap Clap Clap Clap Clap
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
