THE death of Cecil the lion has shocked the world and led to a backlash against big game trophy hunting — but this woman knows what side she’s on.

    Sabrina Corgatelli, a huntress from Boise, Idaho, the U.S., has gleefully pumped images of herself on big game hunts comparable to that taken by Walter Palmer onto social media in the midst of the controversy.

    And despite a stream of obscene and disparaging comments accusing her of animal abuse and heartlessness, she has vowed to continue sharing the images regardless of what her “haters” think.

    Corgatelli, who poses in pink hunting gear and hunts with a powerful composite bow and manicured nails, appears to be keeping the world updated on an ongoing trip to the Kruger National Park in South Africa.

    The hunting enthusiast, who has a public Facebook page documenting her exploits, has shared images of her standing over her quarry, apparently plucked from the extensive game reserves in the east of the country.

    Her prey includes a huge giraffe, a kudu, an impala, a wildebeest and a warthog — with apparently more to come.

    Hundreds of people have protested her actions on the page — calling her “deranged” and “a disgrace to humanity,” as well as vitriol too obscene to reproduce.

    But Corgatelli, who faced objections even before Cecil’s death caused international outcry, is unmoved by their complaints.

    Posting early Friday morning, she said, “All you haters, This is for you!! Have a great day, cuz I know I will!!”

    According to her periodic updates, Corgatelli’s hunt began July 24, when she boasted about killing a kudu, a type of African antelope. Later updates showed her with a warthog, which she said was “fun” to hunt, followed by the “beautiful” wildebeest and then the impala, another sort of antelope.

    Hunting giraffe is legal in South Africa, Namibia and Zimbabwe, where fees of up to US$15,000 per kill have been recorded.(SD-Agencies)
