I'm sorry! I didn't mean to ruin your day!Originally Posted by EricaNicole
That really ruined my day!
I think they have a much different situation going on over there when you look at the big picture...Originally Posted by GingersMom
Can you IMAGINE the outcry if we started poisoning bald eagles in the states???
There are only 1000 of these lions left in the wild, so anyone who does anything to harm one of these animals should face serious crimminal charges. That makes me sooooo mad!Abdulaziz said it costs around $6,000 a month to run the zoo, but it only receives $5,000 in revenues from entrance fees. He added that the poisoning has been going on at least since he arrived two years ago; the number of cubs that have been killed was not immediately clear.
Please, explain to me, what about the big picture in any way justifies the killing of extremely rare and innocent cubs? I can understand not having much money, trust me, but I wouldn't kill off my country mascot - an endangered species, no less - to give the government money!!!Originally Posted by tiffanyjbt

Sorry about the heat - if a mod wants to shoot this one over to IMO, I'm completely ok with that!
