* TheodoreRoosevelt, the twenty-sixth President of the United States, could be seen as an Egomaniac Hunter. In his home on Long Island, every other piece of furniture is some part of an animal. Every wall has animal heads on it.
** Subverted when you think of his status as a conservationist, and then played straight ''again'' when you realize that it was probably just so he didn't run out of animals to hunt.
* British writer Lord Dunsany - when some zebras escaped from a zoo, he hunted them in the middle of central London.
* Ted Nugent. Hunts really large bears in Michigan with a bow and arrow. Donates much of the meat from his hunting to [[PetTheDog Feed the Homeless]]. Whether that's [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold good]] or [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk not]] [[YourMileageMayVary depends]] how you feel about hunting.
* While most hunters at least try not to waste too much and sell any meat/hide that they don't want or can't use, there are some content with killing something, taking its head as a trophy and maybe a few pounds of meat, and leaving the rest of it to rot while they head merrily back home. Did I mention that most hunters like medium-sized game (especially deer), which average about ''a hundred'' pounds?
** To be fair, though, whatever's left of that animal ''will'' be used by ''something''. Most likely a vulture, but [[WhatMeasureIsANonCute more likable]] animals like wolves, lynx, and pumas have been known to scavenge carrion when hungry (assuming there are any around...humans tend to discourage large predators on their favorite hunting grounds). Wasteful and senseless on the part of the hunter, yes, but at least TheCircleOfLife knows how to make up for them.
* Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria (who's assassination triggered WWI), according to TheOtherWiki, had a love of trophy hunting far in excess of the norm of his time. His diaries kept track of some 300,000 trophy kills, 5,000 of which were deer.
