SICKENING trophy hunting trips to shoot elephants, rhinos and lions in Africa were on sale at the UK's first ever stalking show.
Nearly 90 exhibitors attended the two-day event.
Among the Brits at the Staffordshire County Show cashing in on the bloodthirsty safaris was Venari UK, an agent offering trips to South Africa.
A representative boasted to an undercover investigator: "You can pretty much kill every species, elephant, rhino, lion." But he admitted: "I don't f***ing highly push it because that's the sh** that's a bit sensitive."
Another firm, Settlers Safaris, offers trips in Africa. When asked if there is a limit on how many species you can kill, it told an investigator from Humane Society International/UK: "The only limit is how much money you've got."
Venari UK, set up in 2019, is run by Tom Douglas, 31, from Salisbury, Wilts.
His father Robert has a taxidermy business called R S Douglas & Sons.
