Weirdly, I can imagine the British Raj hunting natives.
Maybe that's just me.
That sucker may be a bit close to the bone.

Who/what exactly are the hunters supposed to be hunting if "Killing tigers, kills tourism"? The local Indians? Then that wouldn't kill tourism. Shouldn't the hunters then be the ones lying on the ground as in essence they are the tourists. I don't get this.

The metaphor is... Hunters killing Tourists.

I don't like the message (or let's say the strategy, that if there are no tigers, there won't be any tourists) but i like the creative idea. It's a killer idea ;-)

interesting thought. think it would have much more poignant to hang the person rather than him looking crashed out on the ground in front of them. Just a thought.

Agree with you. In the absence of any blood and gun shots, it looks like he had a little too much to drink and passed out while this pic was being taken.

I like it, and I see nothing wrong with it, not to violant, and manages to put man in the animals position with a hint of humour (which is rare). good job !
