Any animal that isn't considered a nuisance or pest, or any animal that I or my friends have no desire to eat. Agree........

Put some giraffe, zebra, baby seals, little kittens and a few penguins in a 5 acre high fence and let me make the ground run red.

Killing a giraffe or elephant is no different than killing a mouse...except in your mind. Some are regulated as per population and the laws put in place, but there is no difference except in the thought process.
Just like Jesus, sometimes you gotta kill some hogs. Lone Star Mesquite . com RattleSnake Dan's Shredding Service

I’d hunt them all- but I have no desire to shoot an elephant, rhino, hippo, zebra, giraffe, or big cat.

What is people’s hang ups about hunting cats? Is it cause they are pretty?
Back in the day I watched a couple of kids and a mom walk up to the picture board at sportsman’s warehouse.
Lady sees a picture of a guy with a leopard and says “man that is so wrong”. The kids say “yeah Mom that is so wrong”
I’m like “ hey lady you are in a HUNTING store!”
Maybe she should shop at REI with the rest of the nature park people
I don’t understand why people recoil over killing a big cat. Yes they are pretty and a predator. They are also not immortal and will die one day if left to their own devices For me, many of the big cat species got on the endagered list, and are now slowly rebounding. Guess I've seen enough nature shows that have shown how hard their life is as a predator. Just getting a kill, then keeping that kill from other predators. I guess I've got a certain respect for them. But hey, if someone hunts, kills, and harvests one legally, that's none of my business.

Zebra, that would be like shooting a Donkey. I'd shoot a donkey too. Grill up nice. Yeah, what’s wrong with shooting a donkey?

Of course. I’d shoot the hell out of one. Anyone thinking about jumpin’ around the woods in a monkey suit, keep that in mind. I’m not even gonna feel bad about it.

Giraffes. I am sure there are a couple others, but nothing comes to mind. Agreed and I don't get shooting a Zebra either. Yep, absolutely no interest.

A fur seal walks into a bar and the bartender asks, "What'll you have?" The fur seal says,"Anything but Canadian Club on the rocks"...

Interesting comments thus far......haven't really noticed anyone chastising others decisions.....only expressing their own desires as requested by the OP..... There are lots of things I have no interest in hunting.....but don't disparage others choices.....if it's legal and you want to do....by all means knock yourself out.....
