TV presenter Melissa Bachman posted a photo of lion she allegedly shot and killed on Twitter, and was met with the full force of the animal-loving internet.
Bachman tweeted, saying: "An incredible day hunting in South Africa! Stalked inside 60-yards on this beautiful male lion…what a hunt!' The tweet included a photo of Bachman and her gun looming over a (presumably dead) male lion. African lions are not an endangered species, but their status is considered "vulnerable."
Bachman is currently a producer and co-host for the show Winchester Deadly Passion. She's also no stranger to controversy as she was previously dropped as a contestant on the National Geographic TV show Ultimate Survivor Alaska after a petition on Change.org called for her dismissal as Bachman is a "contracted trophy killer." The petition gained over 13,000 signatures in just 24 hours.
