Delta Air Lines, the biggest U.S. airline by volume, said it won't allow hunting trophies as baggage if they're from endangered species, as worldwide outrage over the killing of Zimbabwe's most famous lion by a Minneapolis dentist earlier this month shows no sign of abating. said in a statement posted on its website that " ffective immediately, Delta will officially ban shipment of all lion, leopard, elephant, rhinoceros and buffalo trophies worldwide as freight," and it will review all its other policies of carriage of other hunting trophies "with appropriate government agencies and other organizations supporting legal shipments."
