If You Don’t Know, Now You Know: Trophy Hunting | The Daily Show
Trevor breaks down trophy hunters’ claims about the benefits of killing wild game for sport, a practice which has been further enabled by Trump’s rollbacks of Obama-era endangered species protections.

I think you can gain appreciation of big cats without slaughtering them. Psychopaths
Apalala mainly because it’s natural for people to eat meat,shooting an endangered animal isn’t natural unless it’s populated.
Some people can’t tolerate the meat substitutes. Everybody has different dietary needs, and some require more meat than others. As an example, the less I eat, the more weight I lose, and it’s not a good thing. I need to be at least 15lbs heavier than I am, but I haven’t had the energy necessary to buy and make what I need.
@gypsy C137 Animals don’t want to sacrifice their lives, they want to live…cows, pigs, chickens, deer, lions, elephants, wolves etc. Animals on factory farms live miserable tortured lives. And even those raised on smaller farms wind up slaughtered no matter how “nice” they were treated.
@Apalala Eating meat is not the same thing as killing for fun. Killing for fun is a waste of resources
@Cathy GaliLEO Andrews The real problem are humans. No one wants to accept that we need a culling to solve our problems. Who should be killed? The people who use up the most resources
Face the damn animal so we know you got grit.
In the same way some countries are making laws that if you go and commit certain crimes anywhere in the world, you can still be prosecuted and sentenced back in your nation,
they should make the same for hunting.
When the USA blocks any attempt of charging their Soldiers for Warcrimes, then they will block any attempt of charging these “animal-lovers” too
I like that plan.
If the lion or any other animal tried to kill you and you kill it, that’s okay cuz it is in self defense. But when this stupid people come to Africa just to deplete its continent of their beautiful wildlife because it’s a sport, it’s not okay. How are people like this accepted in the community much less the country?? Deport them. They are doing much harm than good!!! They came all the way from Europe to see the animals, not to kill them in the name of sports. If that’s tourism to you guys then it’s not worth their blood money. Have respect and dignity for yourselves Africa!!! Don’t let this kind of people irregardless of their ethnicity, deplete you guys of your beautiful natural resources. Then these people are the first ones to say African people in their countries are destroying their land while they are in Africa brutally destroying theirs. SHAME!!!
Trophy hunters dont just come from Europe…..many come from the US as well. Money talks and that makes me sick
In some African countries, the people can’t stop other people from exploiting them, let alone other species.
In the U.S., we have a lot more power. But we generally don’t use it for good.
Most of trophy hunting are organised by sanctuaries.
The animals killed are towards the end of their lives.
money generated goes towards animal conservation.
Trophy hunting = Poaching
Real hunters don’t kill for vanity
Ever met a hunter?
@Hagen nope all i see in those pics are weaklings trying to seem strong. The only time Killing an animal is ok is for food or if it attacked you first. Going out of your way to kill an animal just because you don’t have the validation of other people like these schmucks desire to ( seeing as they belive they’re actually doing a good thing and are trying to justify it and are offended when people call them out on their hypocrisy) is not only wrong it’s pathetic.
@remliqa I’d disagree, rem. I’m not a hunter myself, though I do enjoy target shooting so there’s natural overlap there. As with any large group of people you’re going to have some nutters in there and they’re going to get all the attention. Most of them are super chill and very not crazy. I’d honestly encourage you to visit a range at some point.
@remliqa Yes, because there are too many lions and giraffes.
@remliqa I think the video covered all the BS arguments you just made. There might be money exchanging hands but the demand for poaching (and trophy hunting) is rooted in vanity. Trophy hunting is not beneficial because you are taking out all the specimens with the best genes. Did you watch the video or just prefer to to ignore the points it so you can enjoy your furs and horns?
At least make it fair, let the lions shoot back
Lions can’t shoot…
How about hunt with bare hands and knife.
Now that’s a sport 😂
Want to be fair and respectful, be a gladiator fighting in an arena.
Snuggie’s3rdHole best comment ever
@DenCo 303
Oh really?? The lions I know are really good at shooting stuff.
A lion with a rig on its head so all it had to do is shake a paw one way and it shoots would be awesome we need some lazers on that shit too
That fat man posing with the dead lion could have fed a whole village for a week – with his own meat obviously.
that was funny.
He’s a pig belly. Too much fat, he would poison the whole village but I’d love to see him being thrown into a crocodile river in the name of love.
SigmaTauri2 Omg that was nasty haha.
Damn I can’t disagree
@lambent123 poor Crocodiles
You preserve endangered spieces by limiting their numbers for fun? Ok then.
@Hagen damn you are dumb as fuck.
@Hagen you are poorly educated
People are so fucking stupid🤦🏽♂️
No wonder NWO wants to depopulate the planet..
Weed it out from the dumb fucks
There entitled dumb logic is probably they think preserve mean stuff them mount them and remember. Just dumb.
@Cathy GaliLEO Andrews Thanos
Disgusting monsters like that need to be caged. They aren’t even fully human.
Just dont hunt top predators or endangered species wtf
#ManKIND
@Colt Smiff I cant go without eating
@Colt Smiff Why on every blog the racism starts, were talking about wild game not racism.
@Сергей Кондратов I agree! that’s why I think we should take you and Hagen and put ou in the desert. Then let other nut jobs pay for the right to hunt you down
Socially boycott hunter. Give them psychological treatment !!!
They don’t care.
Yeah your right I don’t care the food they provide taste too good. Where I live we limit the predators to increase the population of the deer and turkey so we don’t have to go to the store to buy meat
So money doesn’t actually ‘trickle down’ to poor people? Go figure!
These hunters are #PussyAssBitch. If they really wanted to show their braveness then why don’t they fight them with bare hands instead of guns. That would be fun to watch these psychos tore down by animals
yeah, nothing impressive about winning when you have such a good tool. it’s like praising a boxer for bringing a chainsaw in the boxing ring
Like #pussyassbitch father like #pussyassbitch son 😁
That’s what I’m talking about!
but they arent showing how brave they are lol. no one is saying that…..
lets hunt trophyhunters, they have been asking for it!
Put their heads on the wall, their skins for rugs and use their fingernails for so-called ancient medicines😆
Fun fact, some countries in Africa have law enforcement/military units specifically dedicated to anti-poaching.
Just thought that was an awesome job description.
@Cathy GaliLEO Andrews Yuck. Most of them are ugly af. I’d let their carcasses be food for animals.
bullets are too easy
DISGUSTING! Killing innocent animals with high tech guns… HOW MANLY!
@Hagen didnt know those animals were “endangered”
@Frank Martinez so if they aren’t endanger they can just be killed in the masses? nice fucking logic. a few decades ago lions also werent endangerd so back then they could be just killed in your eyes??
@Edo Fluit the difference is that those animals are killed to actually *FEED PEOPLE* while trophy hunters kill just to make their penis tingle since they want to act on their psychotic urges
@Hagen that argument is outdated, chickens and cows come in bunches , bundles, groups. If we were too make actual calculations I’m pretty sure that Chickens outnumber tigers,lions, rhinos..
James Asper I hunt archery
Bullsh*t, it is not up to the trophy hunters to initiate natural selection, by killing off the “weaker” animal that supposedly “slows down” the rest.
That is natures job!! The weaker animals usually get eaten by predators. Shooting them as a trophy just takes food out of the mouth of these natural predators.
Of course it’s bullshit because they don’t take out the weakest animal they take the biggest that makes the best trophy
Spot on. They are mucking up the _real_ natural selection process. And, like you said, taking much needed food from other predators in the ecosystem
These same ppl making that decision on animals, are the same one that are doing it to humankind as well.
Why can’t we kill weaker humans then?
it’s only a sport if both sides know they’re playing
@Leia Jiang are you saying it’s not natural for humans to eat meat and veggies like the omnivores we are but yea hunting for sport and not food is ridiculous
Without hunting, some populations would get out of control.
@AndrewCox X agree, rich people should be hunted! their population is so toxic!
Exactly! how are you proud of hiding behind a tree and shooting an animal. Face the animal alone with a spear then call it a sport.
Fairuz Fairuz haha go for it. I hunt for meat in my freezer, no reason shoot something endangered and beautiful
The metal band Megadeth has a song regarding this, it’s called “Countdown To Extinction”. The lyrics are spot on.
I would pay to see a Lion smack one of them so called Trophy hunters head. They have some crazy logic. 🤬
https://allthatsinteresting.com/poacher-killed-by-lions, you’re welcome 🙂
One guy was attacked by an elephant then eaten by a lion. The comment section went crazy with praise (for the lion).
bg808s nice
That is a sin. You should only allow to hunt for food.
These people kill animals then go home and kiss their dogs. Sick people at its finest
