With one hundred pounders no longer around are we continuing to shoot out what genetics we have left?
They are still around, or at least pretty damned close to 100 pounders.

In some areas, especially in southern Tanzania, the large flowing manes are becoming less and less prominant.
Have a look at those manes from canned South African hunts. They still exist in quality and quantity. If there is an issue in the wild, perhaps the "raised" lions could be used to re-seed the population with the right genes. But perhaps it is also environmental influences.
