To maybe add a little bit of perspective on the why of his hunting a Cape Buffalo.
The danger of getting maimed or killed is an integral part of the hunt for people like him. This time he lost to the hunt and the Buffalo won. And this is not considered the most dangerous land animal in Africa to hunt. That honor goes to Hippos. Evidently they don't much respect getting shot with .500 nitro Express......
I won't shed a tear for him, but I do understand his thoughts.
