Prosecute The Killer of Cecil The Lion
The Issue
Cecil the lion was a male African lion. He lived in Zimbabwe, at the age of 13, and was a major tourist attraction in Hwange National Park. He was being studied by Oxford University via GPS collar, and was popular among his own kind, being part of 2 prides or lion social groups. One day a Minnesota based dentist named Walter Palmer paid $55,000 to go illegally hunting, in which he lured Cecil out of the park, and killed Cecil with a gun, but first injuring him using bow and arrow, then sending the death bullet into Cecil. After that Cecil was skinned and beheaded by this monster dentist, who has faced no prosecution by the Zimbabwean minister. Walter Palmer hadn't just killed Cecil, but had also ruthlessly hunted other important or endangered animals such as rhinoceros's, big horn sheep, warthogs, leopards, bison, black bears, and much more.
Even though he wasn't prosecuted in Zimbabwe doesn't mean he can't be prosecuted here, in the U.S. Currently the U.S. is considering prosecuting Walter Palmer for his atrocious, selfish act of idiocy for bribing foreign officials, and illegally hunting a protected species. The US Fish and Wildlife Service and the U.S. attorneys office already support this, and all the world needs this prejudice to be resolved. There is one way: we all gang together to support the prosecution of this abhorrent revolting man. Cecil was a father of several cubs, and the wife of Jericho (a lioness), and for your sake I attached a video of his cubs, to show how lions care and love for each other.
All we need is 1 press of a button from all of you, and we will make the world safer and fairer for lions, and many of the other species Walter Palmer hunted for joy and sport.
