    Kept My Attention But I Was Mortified
    This is a very well done documentary. But what it shows will mortify you. I was yelling at the screen.

    The atrocities against the animals in this documentary absolutely made me sick. Animals are slaughtered relentlessly, cruelly and for no reason other than the sport of it. I wanted those wild animals to rip their killers to shreds. At least once it would have been nice to see one of the poachers ripped to shreds by the elephants, lions and hippos.

    It never ceases to sicken me how a man with a gun thinks he has really accomplished something by shooting an animal. Watching the men stand proudly with their gun over the carcass of an animal for a photo just makes me sick. They should all have been fed to the lions.

    This documentary proves one thing and one thing only. Humans are the sickest and cruelest animals on the planet.
