Default The Women Who Kill Lions

Anyone ever see this garbage program on Canadian Netflix?
It's trying to promote hunting to my understanding

Within the first 10 minutes of the show it shows some stupid city looking woman's kid shooting a robin in their backyard then shows the stupid kid shooting the rifle by his head WTF is this ****!
Making hunting look worse to the uneducated fools!

Not trying to promote hunting. The Brit accent of the narrator should have been your first clue. That she described Ricky Gervais' Tweet as "poignant" instead of "snarky" should have been another.

As for the kid, he was hamming for the camera and they at least showed Mom correcting his behaviour. A pro-hunting doc would not have shown him misbehaving to begin with.

We don't actually see the robin or the aftermath but in Croatia and the surrounding countries, shooting song birds is quite common and accepted - even if it is not always legal (not sure about Croatia itself).

If anything the show is a cautionary tale about posting your crap on social media.
