Here’s Why One Of Donald Trump Jr.’s Hunting Trips Might Land Him In Court – The List

Donald Trump Jr. is an avid hunter, and, in 2019, he traveled to Mongolia and shot a rare Argali mountain sheep but only afterward did he get the government's permission for the kill (via ProPublica). The trip also reportedly cost thousands in taxpayer money to fund his Secret Service detail. He and his brother Eric also raised eyebrows in 2012 when they went on a safari in Africa and killed a host of animals, including an elephant, kudu deer, and crocodile (via TMZ). Now, one of his recent hunting expeditions may land him in court.

In 2018, Don Jr. went on a guided hunt in Utah, during which he killed a bear and a cougar. Now the hunting guide, Wade Lemon, faces felony criminal charges for allegedly "baiting" the bear setting out food to lure it to a spot where it could easily be shot. According to the Salt Lake Tribune, Lemon's camera with his name and contact information was found near the illegal bait. Lemon has been suspected of game-baiting on a number of occasions, but this is the first time he has been charged.

The county attorney for the case has called Don Jr. "a victim andnow a possible witness in a fraudulent scheme to lead the hunter to believe it was actually a legitimate Wild West hunting situation." The former first son whose comments are sometimes confusing has not yet responded.
