Since a millionaire ranges from "boomer home owner with a 401k" to "someone with $999,999,999.99" I thought this snippet was instructive:

Dosio was the owner of the Pacific AgriLands Inc which has its own 12,000 acre vineyard in Modesto but specialises in providing management for local wine farms. His son, Jeff, is President of the company which produces 40 percent of Californian wines. His other son, Blake, is a farmer and reportedly also worked in the family business. The company supports most local vineyards, including the famous E&J Gallo wines.

Imagine having the money to do anything you want for the rest of your life and choosing to spend it on trophy hunting

"Serial killer killed in self-defense by attempted victim"

party-sicko yes-hahaha-yes-l

Just like last year when another trophy hunter POS was killed by cape buffaloes, so funny that this keeps happening. Not surprised, but it's still gross how the article whitewashes this guy.

Dosio's shotgun was cast aside as the startled herd turned on him and his professional hunter.

lol imagine having a fucking gun against wild animals and still losing. It's not like the elephants were carrying machine guns on their backs as improvised technicals. Or had plate armor on.

Hunters are such cowards.

We should start a company that charges rich people to hunt dangerous animals, and just abandons them in front of said animal instead.
