From the linked article -

A professional big-game hunter was crushed to death by an elephant that had been shot, according to reports in South Africa.

The Netwerk24 website said an elephant cow stormed a group headed by Theunis Botha in Zimbabwe on Friday.

The elephant was reportedly shot as she picked him up with her trunk, before she fell and died, crushing Mr Botha.

A Facebook tribute by Zimbabwe-based Kuronda Safaris, which worked with Mr Botha, called him "a great man with a fantastic sense of humour".


Cheers,

I despise big game hunters who would run a mile without their powerful guns..

I'm a big supporter of the World Wild Life Fund and the Born Free Foundation..

As a slight aside, I well remember a commercial television advert of the early 1960s that showed a well-groomed man with slicked-down wavy hair and holding a shotgun. He took aim upwards and fired with a satisfying 'Crack!'. The jolly jingle that accompanied it went "When the geese fly high in the morning sky, men use Silvikrin hair-cream"
There were two further 'shots' by other men (men? of course - this is fifty years ago) - one at a target and the other I forget, but the sharp resonant Crack! outdoors on a summer's morning remains indelibly imprinted on this child's memory. It clearly was a grown-up thing to do.

I haven't seen the advert recently...
