BAN THE TROPHY HUNTING OF AFRICAN LIONS!

For president of Zimbabwe Robert Mugabe and president of United Sates of America Barack Obama

On July 1, Cecil the lion, one of the most famous animals in one of Zimbabwe's national parks, was shot by a bow hunter.

Walter Palmer is believed to have injured Cecil with his bow before tracking him for 40 hours and finishing him off with a gun, said Johnny Rodrigues, chairman of the task force. The lion's skinned and headless body was found along with Cecil's tracking collar, which Rodrigues said the hunters tried to destroy. The lion had been part of a long-running Oxford University study.

Walter Palmer is believed to have paid almost $55,000 to hunt and kill Cecil, a beloved lion from one of Zimbabwe's national parks.

this petition is to demand to the president of the United State of America Barack OBAMA, and to the president of Zimbabwe Robert Mugabe to bring in justice Walter Palmer for his criminal act.

We cannot afford to sacrifice the future of Africa's lions for the sake of a few trophies.

Lions are extinct in North Africa, severely depleted across West and Central Africa, and now losing ground in their strongholds of East and Southern Africa. But by raising our voices now, we can still save these amazing creatures

PLEASE KEEP SHARING. WE CAN END POACHING FOR GOOD. OUR VOICES ARE STRONG AS ONE.

We are working on a project of getting some gps tracking system collar for lions to protect them

for example; 1 gps tracking system collar for a lion is 1500 pound = $2500 usd

African countries like Zimbabwe Must BAN THE TROPHY HUNTING OF AFRICAN LIONS! What a great loss to Zimbabwe was CECIL a most majestic lion with cubs and a pride. Zimbabwe must resist the hunters who want animal trophies...it is extremely cruel to bait, lure and kill lions. Please instead allow them to be protected from hunters guns and arrows. ALLOW LIONS LIFE.

Walter Palmer must pay for his crime. He should be extradited to Zimbabwe and stand trial like the other two individuals. What a coward! He ran back here to the US where he probably thought he could escape retribution. His story about not knowing he was killing a lion from the preserve is not believable, especially in light of the fact that Cecil was wearing a collar.. He should be jailed for this atrorcity and forced to wear a collar that bears the photo of Cecil.

Please bring justice for Cecil. Animals are God's creatures that should be loved and cared for. Stop such cruelty to the animal kingdom.
