[QUOTE="DA 20, post: 2850831, member: 7680"] Zimbabwe park warns it may shoot 200 surplus lions now that big game hunters are staying home. BUBYE VALLEY CONSERVANCY, Zimbabwe It is the country where Cecil the lion was killed, sparking international anger against the American dentist who shot him. The outcry over Walter Palmers killing of Cecil drove other big-game hunters away from Zimbabwe, fearful they too would attract the ire of the public. But in what is being described as a side effect of the affair, Zimbabwes largest wildlife area says it now finds itself suffering from an overpopulation of lions. Bubye Valley Conservancy has more than 500 lions, the largest number in Zimbabwes diminishing wildlife areas. It has warned that its lion population has become unsustainable and that it may even have to cull around 200 as a result of what is being called the Cecil effect.
