if they're going to shoot things, far better to use low powered firearms rather than high powered ones.

If they're going to shoot things, far better that they shoot each other than threatened species!!!

Good to see they mentioned poachers. Poaching and killing for traditional medicine purposes is far bigger threat to endangered species than managed hunting in game reserves. That said I wonder who is in charge of bookings etc and what their share of the cut is?

+1

Humans are hardly endangered! And morons with guns even less so unfortunately!

Now if the animal could shoot back it would not be so bad, but mans to gutless for that,

I struggle to imagine how a giraffe would operate a gun without falling over. Not the deftest animals known to existence.

The gun will be operated by a zebra.
