Did you know...
...African lions are under threat from a growing predator:
the North American hunter!
Hunters are emerging as a strong and growing threat to the survival of African lions, with demand for trophy rugs and necklaces driving the animals towards extinction, a coalition of wildlife organizations has said.
Demand for hunting trophies, such as lion skin rugs, and a thriving trade in animal parts across the globe have raised the threat levels for African lions, which are already under assault because of conflicts with local villagers and shrinking habitat.
"The African lion is a species in crisis," said Jeff Flocken of the International Fund for Animal Welfare. "The king of the jungle is heading toward extinction, and yet hunters continue to kill lions for sport. "Two-thirds of the lions hunted for sport were brought to North America over the last 10 years, a report released by the coalition said.
Lions have become extinct in 26 countries. Only seven countries - Botswana, Ethiopia, Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe - are believed to contain more than 1,000 lions each, according to the Panthera conservation group.
...the Lilac Breasted Roller is one of the brightest coloured birds in Africa and has seven different colours of body plumage? The great Ndebele King, Mzilikazi, used the bright blue feathers to adorn his headdress.
...the leopard is the most widespread of all the big cats and still occurs, with nine sub-species, across both Africa and Asia? Its ability to adapt to both heat and cold has helped it to survive the loss of habitat caused by increased human settlement. It's long white whiskers, which are stiff and sensitive, help it to feel its way through thick underbrush in the dark.
...the Cape Grace Hotel in Cape Town was voted best hotel in Africa for 2011 at the ULTRAS (Ultimate luxury travel related awards)
