Robert Borsak (born 14 August 1953[1][2]) is representative of the Shooters and Fishers Party in the New South Wales Legislative Council.[3] He was chosen by the Shooters and Fishers Party to fill the New South Wales Legislative Council vacancy caused by the death of Roy Smith on 30 July 2010.[4]

He is best known outside New South Wales for his controversial 2009 visit to Zimbabwe during which he shot a number of elephants, subsequently posting photographs and a personal account of his enjoyment of this experience, which caused a public uproar and people calling for him to leave his position in parliment.
