Cecil (right) pictured fighting with Jericho, who is now the highest ranking lion in their pride, in May 2014. According to local legend, Cecil was kicked out of his pride and wandered alone until he met Jericho


So it sounds like "Cecil" was on the last legs of his life. An alpha lion which is thrown out of his pride rarely last more than a year or two.

The above comment also disputes the claims that the cubs of Cecil will now be killed since his death.

It is believed Cecil (right) and Jericho (left) both had a pride, comprised of six lionesses and several young cubs, situated in the park before they joined forces. They are pictured here in May 2014
