Now, if only "great white hunters" from the United States met the same
fate when they shot and killed beautiful animals for "sport."

Why do you think these were "great white hunters"?


Why do you think I thought the tiger poachers were "great white
hunters"? I didn't post or imply that. I was referring to the asshole
"big game hunters" from the good old U.S. of A. who are mostly white
bread. Oh, and the term may even be found in Wiki, to wit:

White hunter is a literary term used for professional big game hunters
of European or North American backgrounds who plied their trade in
Africa, especially during the first half of the 20th century. The
activity continues in the dozen African countries which still permit
big-game hunting, but the "white hunter" is now known as the
"professional hunter."[1] White hunters derived their income from
organizing and leading safaris for paying clients, or from the sale of
ivory.

The popular term Great White Hunter emphasizes the racial and colonial
aspects of the profession, as well as its colorful aspects. The phrase
echoes the privileged status of the white men who earned their living
this way. Depending on the author and intention, the term can be used
straightforwardly, in parody, or as a critique.

I'm using the term as a critique of the "professionals" and their clients.

Got it?

We get that you're a f'ing joke, Krause.
