SHAME ON HIM! I want them to take his citizenship away. I’m ashamed and horrified by what he did. #CecilTheLion https://t.co/SGRwiOi0UK

Hunting is not a sport. In a sport, both sides know they’re in the game. #CecilTheLion

There needs to be an international law banning trophy hunting once and for all. #CecilTheLion #bantrophyhunting
