A TEXAN trophy hunter paid £85k to slaughter a rare Himalayan mountain goat – as part of an anti-poaching scheme.

Banking executive Bryan Kinsel Harlan boasted of his “easy and close shot” after executing the endangered Astore Markhor screw-horned goat with a high-powered rifle.

He bragged after the hunt last week: “This is the third time I am in Pakistan.

“I have hunted almost all animals here. I saved the markhors for the last.

“It is an honour and privilege to be back in Pakistan.”
