Lion control in South Africa?

Lion control in South Africa, the country where they do canned lion shooting? OK. I know now! The only lion control work required in South Africa is euthanizing female lion cubs at birth. There is a limited market for female canned lions, and it cost a lot of money to raise a lioness cub to shooting age, besides there is an excess of brood lionesses! As it costs more money to feed a female lion cub to shooting age than can be charged for a female canned lioness, it’s just not worth it. So they are often killed soon after birth. It’s a business decision and has nothing to do with conservation.

In good hunting.
