that i disagree with the lion is in trouble from disease habitat loss predation on livestock,parvo its a fact the numbers are down quotas have been cut its not looking good in our life time we have lost the black rhino the lion will be next.of coarse there is some in breeding but i believe that artificial insemination will help that,its here to stay like it is all over the world.it will be the hunter that will be endangered not the shooter but the real hunter,we should petition the record books only wild free range animals can be entered non of this estate pussy bullshit.lets honor the real hunter.
