Across Africa lions and other
great predators are disappearing.
Until recently scientists believed there were 100-200,000 lions
living in Africa, but a recent survey has found that the number has dropped dramatically
to approximately 23,000, and most of these are living in protected
National Parks. But outside these parks lions are being killed at
an alarming rate, and unless urgent action is taken, they may be
completely wiped out from these unprotected areas.
Living with Lions is a research and conservation group, whose projects work in unprotected areas of Kenya to save the remaining wild lions and other predators outside National Parks.

lions. |
