A Georgia businessman, who was photographed holding a gun next to two dead elephants in Zimbabwe, said the pachyderms charged at him, forcing him to shoot them.

Mike Jines, a partner with TopGen Energy in Georgia, offered his side of the story after people slammed him on social media for killing the elephants. He reportedly killed the elephants in October.
