"It was an easy and tight shot, I'm happy to win this trophy," he told local media, proud of his achievement, and shared his photo with the remains of the animal, after the trip .

As if that were not enough, he broadcast a video in which he recorded the exact moment when he shot at the goat, considered the official animal of Pakistan.

Goats are sweet individuals, NOT TROPHIES. RETWEET if you know that hunting is for monsters. https://t.co/e7ojxizg8d

Far from being admired, there was a lively debate in social networks about hunting for this type of species. Some Pakistanis, indignant, claimed that it was not forbidden to kill this copy. While others have suggested that tourists be moved to this region to take pictures with exotic goats, but without killing them.

But Kinsel Harlan did not pay attention to criticism. In one of his interviews, he revealed that it was the third time that he was going to this country to hunt animals and that he always ended his excursions with an image of his "trophy" .
