Ivan Carter, well known for his conservation efforts to provide new habitats for animal wildlife in Africa, have been found to have taken brazen actions in the past, contradictory to his public persona.
The video of Carter enjoying a bloody shooting spree on elephants, lions and jibing about the merits of a shooter’s life have been unearthed by the media, inciting anger on Sunday. The activist was famous for providing the foundation for the historically memorable recovery projects relocating big cats in Mozambique.
