Re: Lions, done to death.

Interesting video. IMHO just another video that shows the ethical dilemma of hunting versus "shooting". One thing that I don't think the video makes very clear is the real economics of the situation. This practice likely remains legal in South Africa not only because it brings in big money, but also because it makes the lion (and tiger) a valuable commodity and in a very real sense helps to perpetuate their ongoing survival. Look at India. The tiger is practically extinct there with vast human over population coupled with terrible conservation. Like it or not, South Africa is helping to ensure the ongoing viability of many species that would otherwise be extinct.
