Surprised they didn't cave on this earlier. Hunting puts WAY to much income into their economy to cast it aside. I guess all the anti's didn't book millions of dollars of "photo Safaris" after all to offset the dollars lost. I'm so shocked. rolleyes

I'm kind of hoping they lose a big chunk of hunters $$$ for a while so they know how much revenue and support it is.

pfft the anti's all live in the moms basement or on those vegan farms where they share wives and wear hemp clothing while smoking pot. All they have is time. If they actually worked for a living they would know how the world works

I bet this spiraled out of control via social media before majority of Zim law and government had any clue what was going on

Yahoo is still around?? Silly little story. I remember when real journalists were expected to research all sides of a story. Now they just quote an op-ed with no facts included. The end makes it obvious that South African numbers were easier to find and the author couldn't be bothered to dig for the Zim numbers.

'Glad they decided not to punish a lot of innocent hunters and professional hunters for the actions of a small group.

You mean to tell me PETA and the idiots that cried about it on facebook didn't step in and fill the financial void left by hunters???? Shocked!! Shocked I say!!!

(I was pretty shocked to read the all the anti-hunting bull**** about the stupid lion on this site I have to say)

The US Government should mind it's own business about foreign politics and game laws.I think our gov has plenty to do right here on our own soil without getting involved with a bunch of anti's that cant mind their own business realmad

That didn't take long. Running a dictatorship is expensive.

It is always wise to try to patch up after shooting yourself in the foot
