Voice of the Sunday People: Time to halt sick killings of the zebra

It is hard to imagine why anyone would want to kill a zebra, let alone glorify the bloodthirsty act.

The latest estimates put the remaining population of this most majestic of animals at less than 35,000.

But they are now one of the most popular trophies for wealthy British hunters who pay thousands of pounds to brutally kill them.

In April 2018 the International Union for the Conservation of Nature officially listed zebras as vulnerable.

And tragically the death count is going up.

Yet unbelievably there are hardly any legal restrictions on shooting wild animals for fun, including zebras – and the killings continue.
