Notorious Trophy Hunter Found Fatally Shot Near His Vehicle

A 55-year-old man known for boasting about big game kills was recently found dead near his vehicle in Limpopo, South Africa. According to World Animal News, Riaan Naude was hunting when his vehicle overheated and he pulled to the side of the road. Someone in a truck allegedly pulled up to Naude’s vehicle and fatally shot him in the head before stealing one of his guns and driving away, reports the non-profit crime-fighting organization the Heritage Protection Group (HPG).

On June 27, Environmentalist Julio Cesar Martinez Tweeted:

Last minute: The hunter, who killed dozens of wild animals, Riaan Naude, was killed in his car when he was hunting. He was found shot in the head in Limpopo, South Africa.

Though the motive for Naude’s murder is unknown, there is speculation that locals resented his high-profile killings of animals in the area.

Naude ran Pro Hunt Africa; the business organizes hunts for paying customers.

Comments on the company’s Facebook page show many people expressing satisfaction that the notorious hunter was dead.

The authorities are investigating the murder.

  1. We all wish all the love, care and sharing the world with our friends.. the animals. We love their beauty. They have feelings of family and the joy of life.Let’s live with them. Not without them. He has experienced the sad killings he did onto others.. the poor animals. And to profit by selling hunting trips is a violation of the rights of animals to live and enjoy everything we enjoy as animals! It was time for him to stop and the animals to sing, roar and jump with joy!

  2. Eye for an eye. Should happen more often. Harsher punishments results in fewer crimes. Once people start paying for unspeakable crimes other may think twice about being a better human.

  3. Hunting is not as much fun when you’re the victim, is it. It’s a shame so many beautiful animals lost their lives because of that worthless thrill-killer.

    • To harm or kill an innocent, defenseless animal for fun is a terroristic act. NO TEARS FOR TERRORISTS:

  4. Well, I cannot say that I’m grieving over this news. In fact, I think I’ll drink a toast to his assailant and his shooting skills!

  5. later a-hole!!! Now you can tell God why you killed his most beautiful creatures for your own pleasure – dirtbag

    • Yes, exactly. Let the Animals get their justice. End this horrendous “trophy” hunting NOW 🐾😢🐾🤬

  6. Feel terrible saying this but the planet is better off without someone whom causes suffering and harm for thrills. Wouldn’t wish this on anyone but certainly not about to shed a tear for him.

    • Don’t feel bad. That’s exactly right. Animal abusers and killers deserve to be put down just like their innocent and defenseless victims.
      The world would be such a better place if violent criminals were given the death penalty.

  7. Lol…….have fun burning in hell you loser! And may all the animals you killed be waiting for you to torture your weak ass!
