The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has declared that our joint petition to list the African lion as “endangered” under the Endangered Species Act may be warranted. From now through late January is a 60-day comment period during which the FWS will seek scientific, commercial and other data in support of classifying the lion as endangered. Please consider adding your voice to this most worthy cause! Also, if you have not done so already, check out Born Free USA’s lions page and read about our recent year-long, undercover investigation into the lion meat trade.
