Anybody watching?  This first segment seems like complete bs from a non hunter perspective since they drew the deer in with feeding troughs.

Is hunting deer considered big game?

That was just the introduction.  Now they're on to the crocs, elephants, rhinos, etc

Complete hack job by CNN.  They should be ashamed for airing that piece of ####.  Almost an apology for the sociopaths that kill majestic animals for sport.

While I get the idea behind raising endangered animals as a way of preserving them, what kind of thrill do the hunters themselves get out of the "hunt."  It seemed to me that the hunters were either driven within shooting distance of the animals or the animals were drawn out by food and water to easy shooting distance.  Literally shooting fish in a barrel.  

And the guys that paid for the hunt seemed like complete caricatures, like Hollywood versions of how non-hunters perceive these kind of hunters.
