Yeah, whats the point of killing something as big as a house. Wow, that's a really tough shot to make. You figure a skilled marksman would laugh at such ideas. I believe I'll stick to deer, duck, and turkey.

Exactly how big would you think the target area is on an elephant? Where would you think you should shoot them? How much do you think that area shrinks when it belongs to a very upset charging bull elephant that has decided to squash you like a pile of dung? Yeah it very well could be a tough shot to make seeing as you aim for about a 6" circle on the elephants head with a very heavy rifle and usually using iron sights.

To answer your question. No I would not hunt these species. There are none here in North Dakota. And I personally have no interest in hunting anything that I am not going to eat. The exception being critters that need controlling or are doing damage to crops and livestock. I have no problem with those who want to hunt critters in a far off land.. Thats just not my thing. I could live well without killing wild critters to eat but I love to hunt and I love the meat. Everyone is welcome to thier own opinion. Those who disagree with me of course are WRONG. But still welcome to express.
