Is this supposed to be a good news?

All i see is that there are now several THOUSANDS not-wild lions, who have no conservation value whatsoever due to unregistered breeding... & not one less of those sorry excuse for people who'd now simply switch to killing wild lions instead.

Hunting of wild lions is what should have been banned!

If they wanna kill lions for fun, don't let them say they're doing it because they care! Let them kill farmed lions selectively bred for it (with belly mane/white coat). They go home feeling better about themselves... The money is generated... That wild lion lives... Win-win-win!

With nowhere to put them, nothing to feed them, the next few years would see a vast majority of those lions being killed & sold off in black market, as more & more wild lions get "conserved" every year.

Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist; but i strongly suspect this might be a plot of the hunting lobby to malign the anti-hunting activism, thus paving way for future smear campaigns.
If things turn out the way i think it might, then for rest of this century the conservationists-with-guns can keep pointing to the fiasco that happened after canned hunting was banned & say, "we told you so"... Reply
