"It beggars belief that, in a so-called civilised society in the 21st century, there is still trophy hunting. It is horrific! It goes back to colonial times when the British came back from the colonised countries and hung their trophies on the wall. We should have got past this stage. It is ridiculous. I agree with Mr Evans about CITES-listed species. There should be a ban on them. It is not acceptable. Apart from that, it is clear that there are illegal imports of trophies into the European Union; surely there must be some way of ensuring that this does not happen. The European Union puts huge resources and effort into keeping out so-called illegal immigrants, yet it cannot stop the illegal import of trophies. We should get our priorities right. Let people in, not these trophies."@en1
