The rocky highlands of Central Asia, in a remote region of Western Mongolia, are home to a plummeting population of the largest sheep in the world, the argali. The endangered species is beloved for its giant curving horns, which can run over 6 feet in length.

On a hunting trip this August, Donald Trump Jr. shot and killed one.

His adventure was supported by government resources from both the U.S. and Mongolia, which each sent security services to accompany the president’s eldest son and grandson on the multiday trip. It also thrust Trump Jr. directly into the controversial world of Mongolian trophy hunting — a polarizing practice in a country that views the big-horned rams as a national treasure. The right to kill an argali is controlled by an opaque permitting system that experts say is mostly based on money, connections and politics.

Trump Jr. received special treatment during his summer trip, according to records obtained by ProPublica as well as interviews with people involved in the hunt. Listen to the episode.

Listen to the Episode

The Mongolian government granted Trump Jr. a coveted and rare permit to slay the animal retroactively on Sept. 2, after he’d left the region following his trip. It’s unusual for permits to be issued after a hunter’s stay. It was one of only three permits to be issued in that hunting region, local records show.

Afterward, Trump Jr. met privately with the country’s president, Khaltmaagiin Battulga, before departing the capital of Ulaanbaatar back to the U.S., according to Khuantai Khafezyn, a local government official in the region where Trump Jr. hunted the argali and a former government official with knowledge of the meeting. It isn’t clear what was discussed. Trump Jr. wouldn’t answer questions about the meeting. Representatives for Battulga haven’t responded to requests for comment.

“What are the chances the Mongolian government would’ve done any of that to someone who wasn’t the son of the United States’ president?” asked Kathleen Clark, a professor specializing in legal ethics at Washington University in St. Louis School of Law. She said that though Trump Jr. is not a government employee, he’s nonetheless politically influential, incentivizing foreign officials such as the Mongolian leader to treat him favorably out of a “desire on the part of a foreign government to curry favor with the president’s family.”

This fcking family. I can't even get my mind around the shady business stuff that must have been going on here - I'm furious enough about the trophy hunting, subsidized by my tax dollars. SO grateful the Secret Service was there to protect this monster while he slaughtered an endangered species

Hmm. That's an interesting response on the backdrop of whole GOP force all out blaming Biden for a non-issue of Hunter working for an Ukraine company.

This does have something to do with the president.

A retroactive permit? What was Junior thinking?

Grossest family ever, and Jr. is the worst of them all, including his father.

Um, as far as I can tell, the President did not issue the permit or coerce Mongolia to do so. So while you may not like hunting, most of his supporters are fine with it. You guys are really grasping at straws, LOL. Impeachment and Biden not going well for ya?

G-d that's disgusting. Makes me sick to my stomach.

Especially that the permit was issued AFTER THE FACT. So he killed this rare treasure, and then the Mongolian govt covered his tracks for him.

It's gross.

He killed a trophy animal without a permit. He apparently thought that was fine. You apparently think that's fine.

He doesn't have to coerce. Many countries know exactly how they can stay in the good graces of the orange buffoon. And if your country doesn't have much going for it, you're willing to throw morals out the window.

This is OP - and it's really gross. Junior, who has contributed zero to this good earth, slaughtered an endangered species with no permit - then got the permit retroactively because of who is daddy is.

That certainly says a lot about the low quality of your character.
