The MSM is little better than the smaller press, mind. The recent shooting of a lion sent the copywriters off on their own hunt for evidence of bloodlust, with predictable results.
Ummm, no.
No 'deer' in Africa...
No 'water buffalo' in Africa, and that's a gnu anyway!
Yeah, that's a much safer caption...

I hate tripping you up, Julia but there is such a thing as an African Water Buffalo. It is also known as the Cape Buffalo. Still doesn't look anything like a gnu but hey, it has horns right? That's good enough for some journalists.
Nice catch on the other stuff though. :0)
Julia, that is a wonderful catch of yours there. It has just gone viral around the pub. Now that I have my pad back I can thank you. Thanks.
I'm a gnu! Spelled "GNU", the gnicest work of gnature in the zoo...
Oh yeah that's my earworm for this afternoon!

Poachers who kill things for sport, surely some mistake!

Oh, Synoceras caffer is a much different animal than it's Asian cousin (Bubalis, I think, can't be asked to Google). Despite the lazy devs in my 'Deer Hunter 2014' Kindle game using the same model for both!

As you'll see this Sunday, they've not learned!
