Cecil’s Killer Returns To Work
Cecil the Lion’s killer, dentist Walter Palmer, has re-opened his practise as of today.
Palmer, who was in Zimbabwe at the beginning of July, came under intense public scrutiny both nationally and internationally when he fatally shot famed lion, Cecil, on Zimbabwean soil.
After Palmer made the kill public, he was faced with severe backlash for the senseless killing and had to close his dentistry after receiving multiple threats – including death threats – from people all around the world.
Palmer’s practise in Minneapolis re-opened today, but Palmer himself was not in attendance.
The dentistry simply released a statement saying that their main goal is to serve their clients and that hey ask that people will respect the fact that the practise is private property.
Many have called for Palmer to be extradited to Zimbabwe to be tried locally for the unlawful killing of Cecil.
