If Steve Irwin ever showed hunters in a positive light, I apologize. Again, I could take or leave him and his shows, they just didn't interest me.

The piece I did happen to catch a few years ago was in Africa when he was trying to see how close he could sneak up on a Lion. Then he went on to tell us how magnificant these species were and that he couldn't believe how people were still hunting them and that it needed to be stopped to save the species. He wasn't talking about poachers, he was very clear that Hunters were threatening the existance of Lions in Africa.

Well I'm no biologist, but if it weren't for the modern day hunter there are many species in Africa that would no longer exist.

Again, I don't like to see anyone getting killed, but I'll save my tears for the National Guard soldier from just North of here that was killed in Iraq last week.
