      FireEmber345 That was stupid of you. You should never do something where you pay to take photos/ interact with Big cats because the sad truth is that those animals will be stuffed into cages, abused and as soon as they get past the age where the start to become dangerous they are tossed into the animal black market where they are killed for meat and their skin/bone. Sold to be pets stuffed into cages where the animal cannot move, sold to rich people that line animals up at walls and shoot them.

      Salto DelPuma "sport hunting" exists because a villager has their crops destroyed or animals killed by a predator or wild animal. being the poor farmer they are, they will gladly be payed thousands of dollars for a foreigner to come remove the animal from attacking them or their crops, and they don't have much use for the dead animal anyways. it isn't reducing the amount of animals there are, it's population control. poaching is the real crime, and they should be caged, however sport hunting only kills the animal that is the problem to the land owner, therefore allowing them to live there in peace, get some money for someone to rid of ONE animal, and still preserving animals by taking out those that are the problem. take that away, and you get more and more confrontations with these predators and it becomes a real problem.
      i do agree, partially in the same aspect, poachers are fucking dumb and greedy, and should be caged.
      (i'm not hunter, i just see both sides of the conflict. buddhism has taught me from an early age very good aspects in life :) )

      Pieman6711 I do not agree with you about the trophy hunting, but I sure do about the poaching!
      The hunters and their powerful lobby groups do a lot of mental manipulating to try to convince the world their is benefit to their sick activity. They are not helping that poor landowner, rather they are helping to keep him that way. Anyone could shoot a lion, a wealthy foreigner does not need to be brought in to do the the job.
      In Zimbabwe, for example, only 2 % of the money generated by the hunting business goes to "the people" or conservation. Almost all of it lines the pockets of corrupt businessmen and government officials... the government which is responsible for Zimbabwe sliding further and further into poverty and famine while a select few live largely.
      As the hunting industry flourishes, poverty worsens, wildlife population decreases. It does more harm than good.
      That said, I believe you are correct in that poaching is an even bigger problem, just that it doesn't make the hunting right or good. Hunters also use this argument to try to manipulate people. "Wildlife populations have decreased in countries where hunting has been banned". What they want of course, is for people to therefore assume it is the lack of hunting that is responsible, when that is not the case at all. The opposite, "hunting" is rampant in the form of illegal poaching.. that is what is responsible for the decline.
      There is such a lack of resources, financial and physical to combat poaching. People are struggling to eat, to survive. Governments are unstable and corrupt. There is lack of healthcare, education, basic human needs.... All of that needs to be addressed for huge problems like poaching to be tackled. There aren't resources to prosecute and legally go after poachers, let alone physically prevent them. I think "sport hunting" not only doesn't help, but contributes to the problems.
      Also I practice Buddhism therefore try to not have malice toward any beings, but it is a struggle for me with the trophy hunters and poachers :). Not a popular view, but I think they should be sentanced to working on a real conservation program, or perhaps working to hand out food aid, or guard the crops of poor farmers.... have them help remedy the problems they have created. It wouldn't work, there is not the money to create such program or enforce it.. but I like the idea :)

      i can see that, yes. very good writing, i must say! (again, lmao). like i said before, you seem to be a very good writer. and what kind of buddhism do you practice? mahayana, theravada, tibetan, etc.?

      +Pieman6711 OK. Humans: 7.5 billion and growing exponentially. Lions: 20,000 or LESS in the wild and dropping all the time. Because of US. You do realize that lions, for example, are on the verge of extinction and DO NOT need population control - in fact they need the very opposite..?
      Humans are breeding every one else out of existence. We breed incessantly, irresponsibly and without any regard whatsoever for the environment OR other species who have just as much right to live here as we do. WE are the ones who desperately need some population control (by way of far less breeding).
      Humans are moving into lions habitat (and leopards - also endangered) with their livestock and then human-animal conflict ensues. We can't afford to lose lions this way, either by trophy hunting or retaliatory killings (I donate money for building "bomas" n Africa, which protect livestock from predators).. Do you realize that there are over a billion people in Africa and maybe 4 billion by the end of the century? I think what is needed is some serious BIRTH CONTROL there, or there will be no wild animals left.
      Lions are set to become extinct by 2050 or earlier if things don't change, and elephants by 2025. Humans will probably be at 9 billion by 2050. IT. IS. DISGUSTING.
      You really do need to educate yourself on the plight of wildlife in Africa before talking about "population control" and farmers "living in peace". What about the animals..? Are they allowed to live anywhere at ALL in vast Africa without their habitats being stolen by humans who can't stop breeding, or shot by immoral trophy hunters?
      You need to think about what you're saying. And you don't seem like much of a buddhist if you advocate this treatment of animals. I understand the human poverty and suffering in Africa, believe me. But we can't go ignoring the broader issue here. We are pushing EVERYONE else out and leaving them with NOTHING. They are entitled to be here JUST as much as we are. What I can't wrap my head around is WHY these poor Africans continue perpetuating the cycle of poverty by having so many bloody KIDS - what they need is education and BIRTH CONTROL. This is madness.
      Using animals for farming (ie livestock) is one of the biggest human disasters and one of the biggest reasons for human-predator conflict. We are so fucking selfish, arrogant and parasitic, as a species. In the end, we will also go extinct if we don't pull our heads in soon.

    These three female cubs, Kamali, Zalika, and Angalia, were born in 2013. A few days ago I finally learned that Kamali and Zalika were transferred to Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo in 2015. Now they and the male in the pride, Sahar, have been moved to Rolling Hills Zoo in Salina, Kansas so that the Kovler Lion House at LPZ can be renovated.
