A new book by award-winning activist, conservationist, and journalist Eduardo Gonçalves exposes the trophy hunting industry’s most appalling secrets, from how a wild animal is killed every three minutes by trophy hunters to how the industry has attempted to stop the UK government from banning trophy imports.
In what Gonçalves calls his “most devastating investigation to date,” Trophy Leaks: Top Hunters & Industry Secrets Revealed delves into the “covert operations” that the trophy hunting enterprise funds to prevent the bloodsport from getting outlawed. He also reveals other shocking realities of the disturbing industry, including how British travel companies actively promote trophy hunting getaways and top trophy hunters have shot more than 100 different species during their killing sprees.
Former Botswana President Ian Khama minces no words in the foreword, describing trophy hunting as “sadistic” and pointing out the “hypocrisy” of countries that allow trophy hunting while simultaneously fighting a “war against poaching.”
This important book sheds a necessary light on the brutal trophy hunting trade, and was released today. It’s available on Amazon now.

What’s New…
THIS IS A ACT OF EVIL DONE BY THE MENTALLY DERANGED PATHETIC PSYCHOS. They are heartless, cruel at heart & knows no empathy towards the innocent, helpless creatures. Sadistic, Blood thirsty people are the worst Vermin the planet earth ever experienced.
Bob Marley sang, “One Love, One Heart”❤️
People say, “Love conquers all”.🥰
White AmeriKKKans scream, “Gun Love! Gun Love conquers all!!”😈
It’s not really a matter of these particular psychos. The core of the problem is the breeding ground which keeps producing these germs, and the breeding ground means the culture (dig the meanings of this word).
Trophy hunting is a “sport” predominantly enjoyed by white people (mostly AmeriKKKans), showing a white people’s deep-rooted cultural trait. Yes, this is a cultural issue and needs to be acknowledged and addressed as such.
And, white people tend to have big money to enjoy this “rich man’s sport” and satisfy their crooked sense of superiority and dominance. This is yet another case showing how international economy and politics work : rich countries trample poor countries, which are often undemocratic and controlled by privileged few.
Though rich countries are also controlled by the rich and powerful, they are at least politically more democratic. So, I think the solution should be sought by people in rich countries rather than those in poor countries. In other words, the voice of people in rich countries can be louder and more influential.
Trophy hunting is an abomination.
The term “hunter” is a euphemism for psychopath. This psychopath kills for the joy of killing! It’s time we, as a society, start recognizing this behavior, regardless of victim species, for what it is. And laws need to be created to make it a crime to indoctrinate “children” to psychopathic behavior.
Trophy hunting FOR SURE!! Trophy Hunters have huge EGOS and an overinflated need for praise. They LIKE killing defenseless animals so they can BRAG about their acts.
But I disagree with you about common hunters observing hunting season.
Deborah, who created “hunting season”? A killer by any other name is still a killer, regardless of victim species.
Stopvshooting innocent animals.
Since it is legal to have a trophy, but in general the mother nature of this planet belongs to human beings it would be completely inline with moral reasons to allow the public to know names of those who take it away from us. In other words legally to publish personal data of these hunters such names and country of their residence.
In this case, I would make my own decision whether I want or not to keep friendship or business with this person. I think it is my right to make such decisions based on solid information.
I can’t believe that they’re just shooting into a herd of elephants that is absolutely ridiculous why can’t that be stopped somebody needs to pay attention to that I cannot believe that they just let people shoot and deferreds of elephants unbelievable
STOP ALL TROPHY HUNTING WORLD WIDE. THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THESE BRUTAL KILLINGS…FOR RICH JERKS! PEOPLE..PLEASE DEMAND AN END TO TROPHY HUNTING!
ban all trophy hunters, animals deserve to live in peace.
PLEASE STOP THIS
Please stop this terrible killing of animals.
Trophy hunters are the scum of the earth. Without their big guns and big money they are worthless cowards that should be erase from society in the most gruesome ways.
And who would support the forty million acres of game farms in South Africa then? That is where most hunters go to hunt.
Their fees and the venison industry support that huge area and the billions of animals and plants. Without hunting and venison, it would be turned over to cattle and goats and the wild animals killed as competitors. Worse still, if it was turned over to green crops, all of the animals and all of the habitat would be gone, ploughed up and dosed with chemical fertilisers.
Nobody asked you to like hunting, but it is legal and Africans have always eaten their wild animals. Meanwhile, the animals that are hunted live a better life than farm animals in a shed in the West.
The most important thing is that their numbers are increasing in South Africa, not decreasing. Farmers can raise as many as the industry asks for. These animals are not the endangered animals you read about in Africa, and the animals in the reserves are not hunted.
You again!!!! Cecil the lion was butchered in a reserve. And we’re not talking about Africans eating their wild game, or farmed animals, we’re talking about the rich, bored men and women that only want to boost their ego and for bragging rights. You really believe those tales the corrupted government and the greedy and heartless game guiding companies tell you, do you? And by the way, it’s not because its legal to shoot innocent animals doesn’t mean that you should or its ethical. Why don’t you tell us how many heads you have on your wall of pride?
Helene, you’re right – Howard The Coward most certainly has plenty of sad faces hanging on his wall. He’s a disgusting little troll on this site.
Author Marjorie Spiegel said it best: “Hunting is a demonstration of absolute power over someone else – the ability to end someone’s life. Hunters try to kill the most “virile” of the males, those with the biggest antlers. If they are successful at ending this life, they have proven their own manhood.”
