"Video shows US gun lobby’s NRA chief struggling to kill wounded elephant
The leader of America’s powerful gun lobby was filmed botching the shooting of an adult elephant during a hunt in Africa and failing to put it out of its misery at point-blank range.
Footage of Wayne LaPierre’s 2013 trophy hunt in Botswana has emerged after the National Rifle Association (NRA), which commissioned it as a promotional feature, decided against broadcasting the material because it showed his inability to kill the animal even at close quarters.
In the ten-minute film LaPierre fires four times and still fails to kill the elephant, whose desperate battle for breath can clearly be heard. In the end the NRA chief’s hunting colleague is told to put the bull out of its misery.
LaPierre, 71, has led the NRA since 1991,"
