HUNTER BECOMES THE HUNTED
. . you couldn’t script it.
An American millionaire big game hunter flew to South Africa chasing trophies… and never came back. Asher Watkins, 52, was gored to death by a Cape buffalo he’d been stalking with a pro guide earlier this month. The animal charged out of nowhere, fast and furious, crushing him in seconds. He was hunting on day two of his “dream” safari. Day one, he shot a waterbuck. Day two, the buffalo shot back. The guy wasn’t some amateur either. He was a ranch real estate exec, tracking the 1.3-ton beast with experts. But this buffalo hadn’t been hit, showed no injuries, and went full beast mode with no warning. His family? Already at the lodge. His teen daughter Savannah? Left with just memories. His ex-wife? Shared a heartbreak post online that’ll gut you. This isn’t just a tragic story. It’s a chilling reminder that nature doesn’t play fair. And it’s kicking up a storm in the middle of a heated debate around trophy hunting.
