It’s fair to say South Africa doesn’t have the greatest rep when it comes to illegal hunting. We have a thriving canned lion industry, and rhino poachers who, depending on who they know, are above the law.
Mashable have now published some incredible images showing members of a Soweto township partaking in illegal dog hunts. Whilst I in no way support hunting per se, I do think there is a big difference between hunting for food, as these guys apparently do, and have done since their ancestors settled on the land – and hunting for sport, entertainment or profit.
The latter may be criminal, but if these so-called illegal hunters are taking care of their dogs and hunting a non-endangered species in order to feed their families, should it really be branded a criminal activity?
