Lot Essay

LionAid is a UK charity working globally to save lions and end the decline of wild lion populations. They carry out world leading research into lion conservation and engage directly with politicians and decision makers in the UK, Europe, Africa and internationally. At the forefront of highlighting the true plight of lion populations, canned/captive hunting and the trophy hunting trade, LionAid has achieved worldwide recognition via scientific contributions, to enable decision makers to more carefully consider the root causes of lion decline and therefore tailor legislation to ensure better conservation of this species. The only sustainable solutions involve all stake-holders, which is why LionAid works directly with tribes-people and their leaders in Africa, to put in place sustainable and effective programs to help save lions. When you support LionAid, you support lions.
