Former NFL Quarterback Under Fire For Africa Hunting Photo
SOUTH AFRICA, JUL 14 – Jay Cutler’s hunting photos sparked debate over ethical trophy hunting; regulated hunts fund conservation and provide food to local communities, South African officials said.
- Former NFL quarterback Jay Cutler posted photos of a Sable antelope he killed during a recent hunting trip in South Africa, sparking widespread online outrage.
- Cutler, 42, has hunted frequently since retiring in 2017, and social media users linked criticism of his hunt to his personal life and 2022 divorce from Kristin Cavallari.
- The Sable antelope, classified as vulnerable by SANBI, lives mostly in protected reserves like Kruger National Park, where population recovery efforts continue despite threats from climate change and poaching.
- Hunting regulations typically require the meat's use to minimize waste, often directing it to local communities and schools, which supports nutrition and local economies, as noted by an Instagram expert named Todzilla.
- Cutler's posts drew harsh condemnation with critics calling hunting a cruel hobby, while supporters praised his respect for wildlife; this episode highlights tensions between trophy hunting and conservation debates.
