Fish and Game Commissioner resigns over hunting photos
#1
The Idaho Fish and Game Commissioner was forced to resign over hunting photos. He took a trip to Namibia and killed a number of animals. He then emailed the pictures to a number of people. In one picture he poses with a whole family of baboons that he had killed. One of the dead baboons is a baby. In each picture he is grinning widely.

Former Fish and Game Commissioners objected to his actions. When they complained to the Governor they pointed out that Blake Fischer showed a lack of good judgement.
Former Commissioner Fred Trevey summed it up perfectly.
“I’m sure what you did was legal, however, legal does not make it right,” 
The Governor asked for his resignation and got it.

I can't see how someone who does trophy hunting is suitable as a Fish and Game Commissioner. 
He clearly has an inappropriate attitude towards animals. He is proud of killing a whole family of baboons. I wouldn't even want that guy picking up my garbage.

I am impressed by how fast this was resolved and how fast the other commissioners acted.
