VI taince of the animal, say the cable
grams, then crawling on hands and knees
for some yards, the future king of Eng
land has sent bullet thru the heart of n
large wildebeest, in Southern Rhodesia.
Why?
The prince did not need wildebeest.
Experienced hunters will testify that
killing a wildebeest, in Africa, is some
what like going out into the back orchard
and shooting an unsuspecting calf.
The love of killing is in many men.
Perhaps, Prince Edward gets his from
a long line of ancestors who thought no
more of killing man than he does of
taking the life of harmless, beautiful
beast. There is still thrill in seeing the
blood run, for kings as well as COM
