She said Palmer would be sought on charges of financing an illegal hunt and for violation of Section 123 of the Parks and Wildlife Act, which controls the use of bows and arrows in hunting. I hired several professional guides and they secured all proper permits. The landowner violated the act because he ‘allowed a hunt to be conducted without a quota and necessary permit, ‘ Muchinguri said.
‘We shot an old male lion that I believed was past his breeding age, ‘ Bronkhorst said in telephone interview with AFP.
“In early July, I was in Zimbabwe on a bow hunting trip for big game”.
Bronkhorst moreover told the Telegraph in that Palmer’s party never intended to hunt on the farmland where Cecil was killed, which is adjacent to a national park.
The Zimbabwe Conservation Task Force charity said in a Facebook post that it been informed that Cecil’s brother had been shot dead at 4pm (3pm BST) in Hwange National Park.
“Let’s not be cowardly lions when it comes to trophy killings”, Menendez said, calling Cecil’s demise “senseless”.
Safari Club global has suspended the memberships of Palmer and his hunting guide during the investigations and says anyone who hunts illegally should be prosecuted.
“I have not been contacted by authorities in Zimbabwe or in the U.S. about this situation, but will assist them in any inquiries they may have”, he said.
“We ask that Dr. Palmer or his representative contact us immediately”.
However, a White House petition requesting that Palmer be extradited to Zimbabwe to face justice may receive a response from the Obama administration. Since its release, however, it has received nearly double the amount of signatures – 170,000 in total – by Friday morning. “The processes have already started”. “So it wasn’t his intention to kill such a famous lion”, he said.
Hundreds of protesters have gathered outside Palmer’s dental practice in Bloomington, Minnesota, this week to voice their disgust, CNN affiliate WCCO reported.
