US huntress Larysa Switlyk who posed with dead animals she killed in Scotland pokes fun at critics by launching ‘Get Your Goat’ clothing line
The American TV presenter who came under fire for killing goats and sheep in Scotland has launched the T-shirts which read: 'Don't let me get your goat'
A PROFESSIONAL hunter who sparked fury online after posing with dead animals she killed in Scotland has poked fun at her critics – by launching T-shirts which say “Don’t Let Me Get Your Goat”.
US television presenter , 33, was embroiled in the social media storm after she and her hunting pals were snapped on the Isle of Islay last month.
She sparked fury with her posts and was branded by angry Scots on Twitter.
In one post, Switlyk described how she had spent two days hunting a goat on the island before making the rifle kill with a “200-yard shot”.
But she has hit back once again defending her actions, and has released a new clothing line mocking the outrage she faced online.
The T-shirts include the slogans “Don’t Let Me Get Your Goat” and “Barbaric Hunter”.
Posting about the range on Instagram, Switlyk said: “Due to the recent outrage over my hunting adventures I’ve decided to launch T-shirts to take a stance for what I believe in.
“A percentage of every shirt sold goes towards conservation efforts for the world’s capra species.
"Thank you for your support!”
A petition was started calling for the Scottish Parliament to after Switlyk's posts.
She recently tweeted to say she would for her actions.
Posting a photo of herself holding a cut of meat, she said: “Nature is my super market – fresh organic wild meat with no steroids, hormones or antibiotics.
“This is where my meat comes from, do you know where your meat comes from?
“I’ll never apologise for being a hunter! Hunters Unite – THANK YOU to my fellow hunters not afraid to have a voice.
“The amazing thing about social media is if you don’t like my photos you don’t have to follow me or you can even block me."

She previously boasted on Instagram about killing the goat in Scotland, saying: "Beautiful wild goat here on the Island of Islay in Scotland. Such a fun hunt!
"They live on the edge of the cliffs of the island and know how to hide well. We hunted hard for a big one for 2 days and finally got on this group.
Made a perfect 200 yard shot and dropped him... Good thing too because he could have ran off the cliff into the water."
