Texas Tech Cheerleader Under Fire for Big Game Hunting

There are different sides to any story, and one Texas Tech cheerleader is learning this on a grand scale a la social media.

Nineteen-year-old Kendall Jones' photos with dead hippos, elephants, and lions on Facebook have folks all over calling animal cruelty. In fact, according to Foxnews.com "an online petition to force Kendall to remove her page because it promotes animal cruelty had gained over 40,000 signatures in just a week."

Jones explains on her page, "Controlling the male lion population is important within large fenced areas like these. Funds from a hunt like this goes partially to the government for permits but also to the farm owner as an incentive to keep and raise lions on their property."

But detractors say Jones is a sick and depraved for killing the rare animals and boasting about it online.
