Petition to legalize lethal force against poachers to protect endangered animals.

The Issue

There's an epidemic killing our precious large animals across the world, trophy hunting! There's only half a dozen white rhinos left in the wild. I'm sure by now you have heard how Cecil the lion was baited and lured outside of park property and brutally killed, skinned and beheaded to adorn some sick dentist's home. Wealthy people will pay almost any price to have one of the last of a species on their wall before they go extinct from the wild. Let's put the ultimate price tag on big game. If a person gets caught bearing down their sights on protected game then authorities should have a right to protect that animal with lethal force. Africa already has this policy in place in certain areas, let's make it world wide.
