This belongs in Off Topic or maybe even Flame Bait. It has nothing to do with MODx, although I may agree that GoDaddy is not a particularly good hosting company or registrar, and for other reasons I moved all the domains I support off of them some time ago. But an individual associated with the company on his own private time legally shooting something and eating it (in fact providing meat for an entire village) wasn’t one of the reasons.
Wisely spoken Susuan, I over-reacted. Is it possible to (re)move this thread?

Not to worry

there are plenty of people who would feel as you did. I once had a friend who bought two cute baby bunnies for her children. The cute little bunnies grew up into nasty-tempered adults and did what adult rabbits usually do. After listening to her complaints for several months, I offered to help her make them into rabbit stew for her freezer. She was so volubly outraged at the very idea that a number of our mutual friends didn’t speak to me for quite a while. Last I heard, she had over a dozen hutches in her backyard and the animal control department had fined her several times. I am definitely a member of PETA - People for Eating Tasty Animals! Can’t eat rabbit stew any more, though; they aren’t kosher.
Bummer, I m having a bit off a heart problem, and was advised to only eat meat that flies, swims or runs. And indeed a rabbit stew, with thym, white wine, garlic and oven potatoes are very tasty. Still need to "learn" to turn our own rabbits into a stew. Because the two female rabbits we bought rapidley became parrents of 32 bunnies. fortunatly there s kids birthdayparties and loads of friends

There actually are places in Africa that do have overpopulations of elephants, and they can destroy entire farmer’s and even village’s crops. That makes an incredibly difficult life even more so. He’s pretty much an idiot for flaunting his solution, which resulted in feeding a lot of people, to the world though. Oddly, one of the most effective way to deter elephants entering crop fields is the use of bees ... they’ll leave it alone!

The real problem is the overpopulation of people...
What an idiot though. Zimbabwe is a beautiful country that has been run into the ground by one of the worst leaders on the planet. The wildlife has suffered massively as a result. Its a shame anyway you look at it.
Some years ago I was waiting for a flight in South Africa. I sat next to this family from Atlanta who had traveled to South Africa so they could hunt the "big five." The highlight of their trip it seems was chasing down a rhino in a 4x4 truck long enough so that the poor beast got tired enough which let them all get close enough to blow its brains out with a high powered rifle. Listening to a nine-year-old describe this was amazing. I just walked away in disgust...
