A Botswanan cheetah called Legolas that was being studied by researchers has been killed, conservationists said. Legolas, named after an elf in Lord of the Rings, helped researchers understand how the animals hunt together. The body was found next to a highway along with a shotgun cartridge, in what Cheetah Conservation Botswana called an "unnecessary and unprovoked attack".

But seriously, what is it people and senselessly killingly animals in Africa? First and foremost we still have people poaching elephants and rhinos for ivory (when we don't even need ivory that much anyway), then really recently there was that dentist who shot that lion in Zimbabwe and now this. Seriously, people, why, just why!?
