    To maybe add a little bit of perspective on the why of his hunting a Cape Buffalo.

    The danger of getting maimed or killed is an integral part of the hunt for people like him. This time he lost to the hunt and the Buffalo won. And this is not considered the most dangerous land animal in Africa to hunt. That honor goes to Hippos. Evidently they don’t much respect getting shot with .500 nitro Express…

    I won’t shed a tear for him, but I do understand his thoughts.

      My guess: It’s a link. This news website likely will show other South Africa news if you click it.

    I see the problem. He is targeting a land-based species, but has his weapon and attention on something in the air. A common, but fatal, mistake. Shoot for the moon, land on the horns of a buffalo.

    “On Sunday, while on a hunting safari with us in South Africa’s Limpopo Province, Asher was fatally injured in a sudden and unprovoked attack by an unwounded buffalo. He was tracking it together with one of our professional hunters and one of our trackers. This is a devastating incident, and our hearts go out to his loved ones.”

    Go fuck yourself Coenraad and Vermaak Safaris. Unprovoked my ass. You were trying to murder the Buffalo. Also, stop calling this shit hunting. You can’t lead a millionaire douchbag with a gun out into a ranch with a tracker and call him hunter. Are you going to pull the trigger for him too?

      Probably because it was a super friendly albino buffalo.

      Couldn’t he hunt some non-named buffalo? This is like trying to shoot Kirk instead of a red shirt.

    I love the responses in the content section. Good riddance to this fucking guy and let those safari parks crumble.

    You already deserve to be gored to death for trophy hunting, but if you try hunting something called the Black Death, you’re just asking for it.

    And I thought feel good news articles were dead. It’s good to know journalism can still bring a smile to my face occasionally.

    I hope the buffalo is ok. Imagine minding your own buissnes, and a murderer comes and takes shots at you.

    “Hunter” guided to the largest target out there, somehow still misses so bad, the target pummels him.
