    I have nothing against hunting but didn't like the way that he could just switch from Buffalo to Croc because it was there. I love seeing large dominant males of any species and for some reason that just seemed like killing rather than hunting.

      Perhaps you would like to spend a little time fishing in the river for a few weeks. You may experience a revelation in regard to what should and should not be hunted.

    That was an amazing bit of luck, running across such a giant croc. Great shooting also. A beast like that is clearly the size to snatch anything from the river bank as it drinks. A person would offer no challenge either and I'd bet the locals were quite happy to see that one on the tree!

    I've seen videos on PBS and other Nature programs where they spend months and even year's searching for certain giant crocs that hide themselves very cleverly. They just get a short glimpse of them for video and pics for their programs.
    I think it would be quite a challenge to hunt a world's record croc.
    We've done it with just about everything else.

    • @nmysights0185
      @nmysights0185 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      As Mr. Smith said in reply to another comment, that croc had been harassing local fisherman. Assuming that is true, I can assure you that it is indeed a very big deal to the locals, as they can now fish to support themselves and their families with less risk. As far as the weapon, rifles are definitely easier, which is a good thing. The easier the gun is to use, the more likely you are to make an effective, humane shot. That croc did not suffer; he was killed very quickly and efficiently. Besides, I’m not even sure if shotguns are legal for hunting big game, such as crocs, even with heavy slugs, because they are likely not powerful enough to kill such an animal reliably. Unless you prefer wounded animals to dead ones, I would think twice before criticizing a clean kill for being “too easy.”

      @@nmysights0185 Well it costs from $7000 to $20000 or more to hunt a croc, and you are not going to use a shotgun which would not penetrate. You use a rifle that will anchor the reptile to the bank where it can be recovered. If you let it get into the water it may not be recovered and you STILL HAVE TO PAY THE MONEY.
