I have to confess that despite of my great love to India and her great people I start to fill some form of "Gujarato-phobia" and probably same is happening with many lion lovers through the world.

Chinese are using Lion bones too in medicines..

Daily, On average 100+ each Elephants and Rhinos are killed in Africa for body parts....... Media/World reaction 'Meh'

Many Lions,Leopards,Buffalo and so on killed by Game-Hunters (Westerns) ..................Media/World reaction 'Meh'

All African Wild animals population is decreasing every passing year ............................Media/World reaction 'Meh'

Few Elephants trained in India...... Asiatic Lions not transferred to MP ........................Media/World reaction 'Sparta'   

Even though all wild animals population from last three decades (in census by numbers) is increasing in India still we get more negative publicity than African counter-parts.

Of-course i want to see Asiatic Lions in MP and rest of India too but that is just not possible because Gujarathis don't want to share their Lions with others.It's final. May be they re-consider their decision after 2 decades with 900+ lion population boom.Wait and see. Reply
