    I understand hunting if you're going to use the animal for food. (Though I know I sound like a hypocrite, because I accept hunting deer, but not giraffes) Civilization started out that way. But what I don't understand are hunts like the photos above - the hunters didn't even have to try AT ALL. The "difficulty" for them was getting there, saving the money, planning the trip, getting to the location. They're driven in jeeps by people to literally roll up to a giraffe, and blast it to bits. I'm not saying it would be any better if they were on foot, tracking them across dozens of miles or something... but these people above think they're so macho, so awesome, and the actual act of shooting the animal is probably the least amount of effort they put into the whole thing.
