I just had never seen someone shoot a giraffe...
So...you come up with your perceptions of hunting a giraffe because you "had never seen it" before? What reasoning is there to NOT hunt them? They are indeed one of the hardest animals to get close to in Africa, as well as considered a "thick skinned" game, usually with minimum K.E. and/or other equipment restrictions.
I am in the middle of putting a trip together. If it goes thru, I will indeed be looking to kill a giraffe, and a Zebra is at the top of my wish list. Why? The Zebra has always been in my mind as a "someday" and can't explain it. The giraffe specifically for the challenge.
Will I care when folks show their objections based on ignorance? Nope.
