Tell me, what happens if we rip away hunting when hunting protects more wildlife land in Africa than national parks? Animal rights is concerned with individual animals, and their suffering and welfare. Conservation is concerned about protecting populations, species, habitats, ecosystems. And that lions are really cute.

In the past I have attributed some of this conflict to differences between the conservation mindset and that of animal rights/animal welfare. And embattled minority should be protected. It’s a powerful motivator that has attracted millions of people from all around the world to devote time and money to protect these resources.

This Lion should not be shot, as it is a protected reserve that forbids shooting. The interests of those working for conservation and those working for animal rights and animal welfare don’t always perfectly align like you might think they do. The views expressed here are not necessarily those of the rest of 10,000 Birds.
