Hunting is considered as a sport by many across the world, however, at the end of the day – you’re taking a beautiful creatures life. Sadly, there are people inside Pakistan who literally beg and bring foreigners from other countries to pay them huge amounts, as a license to kill and hunt in Pakistan.
Here are some pictures as proof, that paid trophy hunting in Pakistan has turned into a huge business.

It’s not just foreigners who are involved in killing these beautiful animals and bringing them on the verge of extinction. It’s people like the bearded man, pictured in a lot of pictures who is responsible for bringing these people here for the sake of money.
Not just him, it’s other people as well, the common Pakistani, who wants to kill these innocent animals, ruin their natural phenomenon and hang their heads on their walls.

Since the government and Supreme court aren’t interested in protecting these wild animals, we consider it a duty to at least raise our voice in favor of these beautiful creatures who are upon extinction.
