A trophy hunter who outraged conservationists with a photo of herself smiling with a giraffe she killed has sparked further anger after saying “he was delicious”.

Tess Thompson Talley from Texas, who gained notoriety after her photo went viral last year, told CBS yesterday she was proud to be a hunter because “it’s conservation”.

“This is a part of the black giraffe that I shot - black due to old age - something that I can take around with me and have him with me on all of my hunts. I got the gun case made and I had decorative pillows made out of him and everybody loves them,” Ms Talley said.Tess Talley’s trophy hunting photos have outraged celebrities such as comedian Ricky Gervais and actress Debra Messing. Picture: Facebook“We always take pictures with our harvest. That’s what we do, that’s what they’ve always done.

Her original post said the giraffe was more than 18 years old, weighed 4,000 pounds and yielded 2000 pounds of meat. “It got really bad. I received mails at my house, they’re spreading out addresses where they think I may be, they were showing up at my work, they’re calling my employer, trying to get me fired. I have a great employer and he supports me all the way.”“It is a hobby, it is something I love to do. It’s conservation, at this hunt in particular, it was a conservation hunt. We are preserving the wildlife.

People need to grow up people have hunted animals as long as humans have been hear, The was an animal skated for culling so was not a non sanctioned death, The animal was not wasted so no problem hear, people sending death threats and giving out her address should be arrested

Lol from gun loving country... what did you expect....

Idiot.

These type of people must be wired up wrong compared to the majority of us who (& I don’t like speaking for others but) find this type of behaviour abhorrent

I'd like to meet her. In a locked room. Just for a few minutes. 👊

What a remarkably obscene person.

Wait until next time an elephant tramples her and makes mash potato out of her - delicious for the lions to feast on her

Its a joy she says. She loves it. Killing an peaceful harmless animal by shooting it whilst hiding behind a tree. AND THEN - pose with the dead animal like it some major achievement. The proudness is sickening

What an absolute oxygen thief!

Absolutely vile.

Just revolting

Shame she didn’t choke on it

Making our red meat industry greenTwo years ago Australia's red meat industry set itself the goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2030. Farmers are getting on with the job to bring restaurant customers green menu credentials, but how realistic is that goal? Meat is a luxury and there can never be enough to feed everyone so it will just become more of a luxury as poorer nations raise their purchasing power and compete for the limited supplies. The 'green' part is irrelevant, it makes so little difference globally & in the long term. A noble cause but unrealistic. We need to just reduce meat consumption and meat exports. We're basically exporting water and for a drought ridden country that's just insane. Plant based meat alternatives are coming and maybe they'll help the transition.
