Does this not fall within cruel and unusual punishment?
Surely there are better things to show him than a cartoon? A documentary on the issues of poaching perhaps?
Or at least make him write out an essay in response to the film that shows he understands why he was being shown it.
As a hunter myself, I would rather see poachers made to contribute to conservation projects and/or paying back the communities/jobs that could potentially be damaged by their actions. (obviously these would vary depending on location, species etc)
Funny punishment never the less
It's cool and unusual punishment technically.
Maybe he'll end up liking it!
TBH I think poaching is a heinous crime and should be a felony if it can be proven it was done with non-food related intent. proper Conservation of wildlife is super important to the health of the environment.
Sure, but the dude was killing Deer which are just massive rodents with a huge population problem...
He was still killing them out of season+no registration and wasting thier meat. He could have seriously hurt the stability of population by submitting that data.
In some places, not where they was doing it.
Also they were just taking the heads as trophies and leaving the bodies to rot, purely poaching just for the thrill, not even sport hunters do that.
