Family of hunter killed by elephants say how they learned of his death
Ernie Dosio's son blasted the 'twisted' response to his father's death as comedian Ricky Gervais was accused of rejoicing in the grisly incident after making a crass joke.
The Hunter Became the Hunted

I've never been a fan of trophy hunting... I was raised that you don't shoot anything you don't intend to eat.
I'm not a fan of catch and release either... If I fish, I mean for it to end up on my dinner plate.
I don't care much about all the drama in the story; if you're going to play where the elephants live, expect to get trampled if you're perceived as a threat to them.

I’m not a trophy hunter either. I don’t hunt anything except ducks, which I eat. I do catch & release though, but sometimes keep what I catch.

this incident sounds very similar to the plot of a wilbur smith book from 1989 called A Time to Die... ..
the book was said to have to have been loosely based on an actual account from the early 1970s of a lion hunter
- who became teminally ill and began to feel guilt over the numbers of wildlife he had killed for sport.... and basically
sacrificed himself to a lion on one last hunt..... ...smiths book is about an elderly and terminally ill big game hunter
who does the same thing - although in a very dramatic fashion - during a hunt for a legendary rogue elephant.. uncanny
similarities between the book and what has been reported in the news about this recent hunters death... ...
