I agree, not enough and it certainly will not bring back those beautiful cats. Trophy hunting is causing species not just in our own back yards to vanish but across the globe. Very sad future for our planet’s wildlife.

This is very distressing. To me, the fine seems light.
And all this killing was to support a trophy hunting business; for deer I presume.
