baboon trophy. I have shot a couple myself but there is never an excuse for shooting a female baboon or babies. A female baboon is easy to tell from a male and the little ones are even more so. The man used extremely poor judgement and as much as I hate to say this, I agree with the commission and he should resign before it turns into another Cecil the lion mess. And before anyone thinks I am against hunting, let's not go there. I have taken almost 100 African animals and all were older males. Some females make great trophys like the Gemsbok, whose horns can sometimes be longer than a male's horns. But still I find the idea of shooting a female animal totally against what I believe in. So, in short, the man should resign before this mess erupts in the face of all Idaho sportsmen.

Agree. Bad enough shooting them, but to display them yet!

of another great hunter, Elmer Keith, who passed on shooting a grizzly when cubs tumbled out of the brush and is quoted in his book "Hell, I Was There" as saying "I never wanted a bear bad enough to make orphans of three cubs". Well, this commissioner didn't make them orphans, he proudly wiped out the whole family and then bragged about it. Not a good representation of ethical hunting.

He resigned
