Hunters go to Africa to shoot lions, and this is without question a good thing; for birds, for ecosystems, and for lions in general! Cheetahs would be quite happy with you shooting Lions as Lions are bastards that keep stealing their kills. Hunters are prepared to spend a lot of money for the privilege of shooting a lion.
