   • 2026 April 21, Cal Flyn, “On the trail with the hunters who believe shooting big game can save Africa’s wildlife”, in The Guardian‎:

     Lion hunts are highly choreographed, rarefied affairs; you’re looking at $70,000 before you even load your rifle. Then there are the game fees for the bait you’ll need − a zebra, warthog and a kudu, say − and for the lion itself. All in, you’re looking at a six-figure outlay with no guarantee that you’ll come home with a lion skin for a rug. (Taxidermy not included.)

2. To touch a person's interests or feelings closely; to be fully understood or realised.

   Synonym: hit home

   It was only when I heard the police sirens that the seriousness of what I had done came home to me.

   It finally came home to me that I was wrong.

3. (nautical, of an anchor) To drag or slip through the ground.
4. (sports, of a sport) To achieve success (typically by winning an international competition) in the country in which the sport was invented.
