The YouTube series, titled “Game On,” features Jones and a friend setting out on hunting trips together. The first episode, a poorly-made jaunt to Lake Charles, La. for a crocodile hunt, begins with the line, from Jones’ friend Taylor Altom: “I want to shoot a gator in the face.” The pair travel through the swamp in search of alligators for a weekend with the help of a local hunter.
WARNING: Disturbing Images
(Kendall Jones/YouTube)The episode, which can be seen at this link, ends with Jones shooting an alligator who was caught on a baited hook in the head as her guide holds it up about six inches away from her. She’s careful to thank her Remington, a nod to the show’s sponsor.
(Kendall Jones/YouTube)The American alligator was taken off the U.S. Fish and Wildlife’s Endangered Species List in 1987, and is actually faring pretty well. But hunting methods like baited hooks have been criticized before as inhumane ways of killing the animals. During alligator hunts, a short wooden peg is usually attached to a line, baited with beef or roadkill and then thrown into the water or tied to a branch to lure the alligator. Because take isn’t allowed after sunset, it’s possible that alligators will have to spend the entire night on a line before they’re shot with a gun or bow and arrow.
When Jones was attacked for hunting big game in Africa, a petition started by a Cape Town native calling on her to be banned from hunting in African states gained over 150,000 signatures. Another petition asked Facebook to remove her grisly hunting photos — which they eventually ended up doing. No word yet on whether YouTube will do the same thing.
Exposing the Big Game 
*hurl* These people are mentally unstable, psychotics who walk among the rest of humans. There is something greatly disturbing about them. *hurl*
this is what we are creating in our society today, heartless, amoral, sociopaths that care nothing about the environment or wildlife, just their own self absorbed egos.
Poor girls, they no longer know what to do to show off.
Too bad… the consequences of their deeds are terrible… the law of cause and effect (karma) does not forgive…
Will somebody please put this dingbat out of her (and our) misery?
Nothing better to do, Kendall? How about helping to make the world a better place instead of adding to the misery. Red neck dumb ass.
She should hope she never grows a conscious, then she’ll have to live with he murderous deeds…
