Dr. Palmer didn't eat the lion. He and his hunting party cut its head off, skinned it and left its carcass on the ground. Not sure I see the relevance of your post.
He didn't break any laws. His guides allegedly did. Anyways, it doesn't look like he imported the trophies yet either.
Here is the deal. Ignorance of the law is no excuse. But to further provide a context to his ignorance. This douchebag was caught in 2008 poaching a black bear in an illegal zone of WI. Then transporting it 40 miles to a legal zone to get away with it. His excuse? He didnt know what he was doing in 08 was illegal. Sound familiar?
Its what he and his guides were likely going to try and do with this kill.

Naw, Id rather destroy his business, see that he ends up in the poor house and watch his children smoke crack cocaine to escape the pain of it all.
The other messed up thing is the next lion in the pack will kill the cubs (6).
So what? People are mad and finally in the history of the world many people can come together and reckt someones life. He deserves it. This is what justice looks like. If you dont like it dont go kill endangered species unless its under the circumstances I outlined earlier.

Absolutely. They even took the tracking collar off the lion.
2) WTF do you mean "finally"? Mobs have been coming together to wreck other peoples lives since mankind had enough men to form a mob. All that's missing here are torches, pitchforks and hysterical villagers shouting "witch"!!
The difference is now those mobs can be eating Cheetos in their underwear while "participating" in mob behavior.
this is why i hate social justice warrior vigilantes.
so he fucked up, let the law deal with him.
Nope law is not strict enough when it comes to animals, let everyone fry him. I hope he goes bankrupt and his life is ruined.
Pisses me off that some rich people feel so entitled that they can go kill endangered animals. It seems to be some kind of trend. Elephants are often a victim of this too and at the current rate they will be extinct in about 10 years.
People who do this should be tied up to a tree in the middle of the Savannah.
If I was rich I'd actually want to use my money to help animals not destroy them. 50k could seriously help a local animal shelter expand capacity for example. But if I was millionaire I'd probably do even more than that.
Hopefully he get's charged here for bribery for giving the locals $50,000. Bribing people in another country for business purposes is now against federal law.
