{{mature}}[[File:E3e17256b5c2f7765940be65afebde80.jpg|thumb|284px|Serial killer Ivan Milat kept the camping equipment of his victims as souvenirs. ]] '''Trophy Killing''' is a gruesome aspect of both serial killers and some war criminals in which the killer will collect parts of their victims as "trophies" - tales of trophy killing go back to the ancient head-hunters and scalping but was not considered a war crime until much later. Tales of soldiers in Vietnam collecting skulls, fingers and even human teeth highlighted the dangers of soldiers becoming savage killers and although a crime many units passed a blind eye to the practice. Another version of Trophy Killing is when a killer does not collect body parts but instead, has a tally of people he or she has killed - many fighter-pilots were said to have symbols on their aircraft signaling the number of enemy pilots they had killed. {{stub}} [[Category:List]] [[Category:Mutilators]] [[Category:Serial Killer]] [[Category:Male]] [[Category:Sadists]] [[Category:Destroyer of Innocence]] [[Category:Psychopath]] [[Category:Perverts]] [[Category:Delusional]] [[Category:Kidnapper]] [[Category:Elderly]] [[Category:Obsessed]] [[Category:Criminals]] [[Category:Barbarians]] [[Category:Homicidal]]
