It happened when he took his show to New Zealand where chef Monique Fiso asked him to kill a mountain goat. Twitter tagged him as ‘inhuman’ after the act.
Animal lovers have also urged PETA to take action against the act on National TV.
While many were outraged with the act some even took his side and said that people were being hypocritical as they are fine with eating meat but not seeing the animal die. Check out some reactions here:
Im absolutely AGAINST trophy hunting. But the outrage against @GordonRamsay is a bit hypocritical. Where'd u think your lamb & mutton came from? Also, it's how traditional folk not just in New Zealand but many countries eat. Even meat in cold storage was once alive #GordonRamsay
