The Internet isn't holding back reactions over the killing of Cecil the Lion [1] (the favorite face of Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park) and especially over the dentist responsible for the tragedy. The 13-year-old lion who established a name among tourists was lured away from legal grounds at night, and then shot with a bow and arrow, only to suffer for nearly two days before being killed, skinned, and beheaded. Walter Palmer, the Minnesota-based dentist who allegedly paid $55,000 for the ultimate "prize," now says he regrets killing the lion [2] although he believes he did so legally.

Consequently, users have been attacking Palmer all over social media. Even Yelp is rushing to clean up the ever-growing negative reviews on his page [3].

Ahead, see the top Twitter reactions that tell us how people, including celebs, really feel about the situation.

What an excellent example of evil cowardice as Dr Walter Palmer beheads that majestic creature.
That title "Dr" should be revoked.

News about #CecilTheLion [11] is breaking my heart. How is big game hunting still even legal in this day & age? We are the worst species ever.

I'll call hunting a "sport" when the animals get to carry weapons, too. Until then, it's just cowardice.

If someone kills a lion for sport, he should be judged by a group of the dead lion's peers in a pit with no way out.

Few things are less manly than paying thousands of $$$ to go to a gated reserve to shoot a lion. How small is your dick bro? #CecilTheLion [21]

Just once, I'd like to see a big game animal maul a hunter, then post a selfie. #CecilTheLion [33]

To the *man* who is said to have killed #CecilTheLion [35] Couldn't you just have got an enlargement? Or a sports car? #YouSadPatheticGit [36]

Congratulations River Bluff Dental and Dr. Walter Palmer, DDS. You're now more despised than Donald Trump. #CecilTheLion [38]
