GOOD RIDDANCE

Idaho Fish and Game Commissioner Resigns After Killing Family of Baboons

Official shared photos of “family of baboons” he killed.

The Idaho fish and game commissioner has resigned from his state role after photos emerged of him posing for photos with a “family of baboons” he shot and killed during a hunting trip to Africa. Blake Fischer and his wife, Beth, posed with numerous animals they killed on a recent trip to Namibia. It was his wife’s first trip to Africa and he wanted her to “get a feel” of the continent, he said, “So I shot a whole family of baboons.” The outgoing official went on in a leaked email: “After we left all of the animals in Africa that were still alive we pretty happy we were on a plane headed home!” In his resignation message, Fischer wrote: “I recently made some poor judgments that resulted in sharing photos of a hunt in which I did not display an appropriate level of sportsmanship and respect for the animals I harvested.”
