Brutal thrill killing
New South Wales MP Robert Borsak boasted of shooting and eating an elephant in a speech at state parliament (The Age, 2/6). How anyone could stoop so low as to kill an elephant is beyond me, and that comes from someone with a shooting background. I shot feral animals, such as rabbits and foxes, but nothing else. There is no room in today's society for "thrill killing".

I cannot see how anybody who has killed an animal for sport, food or otherwise can make such a judgement without being hypocritical.
