Photo and text by @beverlyjoubert. A lion in his prime patrols his territory in the depths of the Okavango. No matter how many times I see lions, when they look directly into your eyes there is a primal, instinctual warning that not only gives us the awe that we feel for these massive cats, but also reminds us who the real predator is. Humans however, have turned the tables with the weapons we have created and we have lost 90% of lions in only the last 50 years. It has been exactly one year since Cecil the lion was lured from a park in Zimbabwe and killed by a bow hunter. His death sparked the biggest global response to a wildlife story ever and there have been massive changes in countries’ legislation regarding trophy hunts; many airlines refuse to transport trophies and there has been intense debate on the role of trophy hunting in today’s world. There are many aspects contributing to the decline of lions and through the Big Cats Initiative we are funding projects to address these. We hope that the debates and awareness raised over the last year will contribute to the conservation of lions and that their numbers will begin to rise once again.
