He'd have been in jail if he'd done that in a civilized country. And it seemed like a baby elephant.

PAGAN9JA:
Useless country. I wish I was never born here.

Special Thanks to Nairaland as well for promoting animal killings on daily basis on fp.

A nation with people that reason like animals. Can't expect anything better.

Less than 40 elephants left in all Southern Nigeria. pitiful.

na u count am?

I see backwardness at its highest level

edward1984:


So when all these animals are extinct, and there is still hunger, then what?

Then we eat ourselves....there are over 6billion of us in the planet....

What next now

Yoruba people kill and eat anything. Suffer head people

thesicilian:
This is very sad. I feel like crying. Why would any right thinking human being kill an elephant?

Bro wild elephants are very dangerous, it was not killed in a government deserved area.that animal will kill any human that crosses it's way.

Primitive men!

I'm glad to see many nairalanders cry out against this barbaric act. I hope seun and lalasticlala lend their voices

modelmike7:
In a sane society, this man will be in prison at the moment, but look at him being praised and feeling like an Elephant - killer Celebrity.
The biggest animal on the land being just slaughtered this way?
Cruelty of the highest order!
There was a country!!

With heavy tears in my eyes,

INDEED

there was a country!!!

datola:
He just committed a crime against 'animality' and would be most likely charged by the Nigerian government.

Ignorance (iliteracy) of law is not an excuse.

I really hope he's charged to court and jailed so others can learn

so sad

Nice! Elephants meat is very delicious! i am going to that village to demand for my own share of the meat

For those of you hypocrites who thinks the man should be jailed for shooting an Animal, Next time you see Suya just waka pass, that suya coud be this elephant! or any other elephant.

People have not been sent to jail for killing their fellow humans in nigeria, let alone for killing Elephant (meat) fulani hersdmen comes to mind.

wait oo! how this elephant take offend you now!...you just go kill innocent elephant wey you for don call wild life preservatives sell'em metcheew...i don't blame you sha after all you are an hunter(no be say d elephant steal your tin sef!!)

Billyonaire:
You all are crying and condemning the killing of elephants but in your stew and soup are the corpse of fishes, goats, cows, periwinkles and even chicken and turkey.

To truly feel be free from your hypocrisy, stop eating animals. It is disgusting

Ike gwụrụ,

This got me reeling on the floor with laughter. I haven't ever used this word. I just can't help it. Nigeria is a "shi it hole country

Chai! Should I call this ignorance or foolishness?
Imagine, UI Zoo are looking for where to buy life Elephant and this pauper hunter just killed one in the South West region of Nigeria for that matter which is very rare. Must we kill everything in Naija? Common mosquito sef, we go kill lol...

Bill Gates said "If you are born poor, it's not your fault, but if you die poor, it's your fault". But it's a pity some people are just destined to be poor.

1StopRudeness:


This is not Europe or America...pple don't have food to eat u are wailing endangered species....with the rate we are going we are the ones that will soon be endangered ....let's face reality.....pple are effing hungry

But the sophisticated ones aren't hungry

ariesbull:


But the sophisticated ones aren't hungry

When the sophisticated ones are less than 5percent...that's a mind bugging statistic of hunger and poverty level

Many people are here condemning the act of the Hunter, even when it was stated that the animal is a danger to the people in that community.

well! it is easy to sit in your house and type whatever you like. Many comments are being too harsh on the poor hunter. Have you taught of it that the elephant might be a wild one trying to attack the Hunter?

Some said he should have captured the elephant alive in that thick forest and go and hand it over to the relevant authority. lol! lots of very funny people on this thread.

We pray to God to bless our businesses, so does the Hunter who earn his living from killing bush animals. He had just added a feather to his cap by killing the elephant.

I'm just wandering what type of country we are, the animal you can capture and turn to money making machine for you. Even learnt there's a hill for reservation and tourist I that town, why didn't they do such for the animal preferably just cage it and people will start coming around to check on it and pay for it.
The last part is the hunter should be jailed for this or is there no right for animals again?

In Nigeria, we kill the animals before they kill us because we believe that some of them are possessed of evil spirits. Which way Nigeria

Chukazu:


The most fooli.sh aspect is when you see Nigerian celebrities going to South Africa and Kenyan like Banky W and Adesuwa (spending hard currency) to watch animals in their game reserve and we are busy killing our own.

Southern Africa makes millions of dollars in tourism while we kill bush meat and sell them for 20 thousand naira

It has been reported there just Les than 40 lions left in the entire Nation ,with such irresponsible hunting soon they would be all gone
