My only problem with this whole thing, while its a few

1) Internet shaming is like faux grieving where you have a core group that's actually upset about something, and a larger group that does it because it makes them feel like part of the pack. Its pack hunting and rioting on an electronic level. You know its like the protests where there are groups of people in there holding a sign, but if you ask them what they're protesting they have no clue, they just want to be part of the riot that's to come.

2) Is this really doing anything to raise awareness of money for that national park? This isn't about hunting or preservation, its about being mad about something.

3) I always get pissed off when I see people dragging their 4 year old kid out to a protest to hold a sign and they have no clue about what's going on. Its about using you're cute kid to gain points, and not about the protest itself, but its to show off your cute kid cluelessly holding their sign up so you can brag about how aware you're little precious is.

Look sport hunting to me is gross, the fact that they lured the Lion out of the national park, and the methods they used, and then the attempt to destroy the tracking collar means that someone knew that what they were doing is wrong.

But this protest is nothing more then people shouting, and when something else bad happens out there, those same people that are taking this thing beyond a way personal level will move on and Cecil the Lions death will mean absolutely nothing.
