And when she was asked about what happened to the giraffe, she smiled and said, "It was delicious." Tess Thompson showed a case of weapons made with the skin of the animal and badumed that "it's a part of the black giraffe that I pulled, something that I could take with me and that I would have during my hunts ". He also announced that he had decorative pillows and mentioned that "everyone loves them".

When the images became viral, he received various threats for his act. The hunter defended himself by claiming that the animal belonged to an expanding subspecies, even stating that the hunt was not for pleasure, but that they were aimed at conserving the species and that Giraffe had attacked two young females who would have had offspring. "The race is not uncommon other than being very old.The giraffes become darker with age," said the American.

The hunter has released photos with other animals that she has killed, such as a wildebeest, a zebra and a kangaroo. In all cases, and especially in social networks, has been repudiated by its controversial activity. She does not fear everyone's questions, however.
