"King Of Beasts"
This year, Zambia announced the lifting of a 2-year-old ban on hunting lions and other big cats.
On its website, a group called Central African Wildlife Adventures offers hunts in the Central
African Republic. The website describes an almost mystical experience in which the hunter and the
hunted lion are equals.
"The last and final contact is usually done at close range," the website claims, "with the lion
appearing from nowhere in the green foliage. Without a warning or a sound, the King of Beasts is
suddenly there and the time has come for two of the most powerful predators on earth to meet."
