Robert (Bob) Parsons the 60 year old CEO and founder of the Go Daddy Group of domain name registrars posted a video from his recent holiday to Zimbabwe of himself proudly killing an elephant. The video included images of local villagers wearing Go Daddy emblazoned hats butchering the beast went viral as concerned animal activists urged boycotting the Go Daddy business. Parsons simplistically claims he is assisting the villagers by protecting their fields and providing food, failing to take account of other humane methods of fostering peaceful co-existence where human footprint encroaches into wildlife habitats. The World Wildlife Fund has identified other means of keeping wildlife out of fields including scatterings of chili and tobacco-based plants. PETA has branded Parsons the “Scummiest CEO of the Year”.
