No, Jericho is protecting the cubs and the lionesses. I don’t know how long he can do that by himself, Cecil was quite prolific!

It’s called nature.
The lionesses won’t ovulate until the cubs are dead. The new cub-daddy want progeny of his own.

I blame twitter and the news media for all the coverage. How else would Cecil’s rivals have found out?

Let’s see, if Cecil is the good, innocent Lion, doesn’t it follow that the other Lions who are killing his cubs and taking his Lionesses are BAD?
Wouldn’t it be like ISIS taking over the innocent females of Syria or Iraq and killing the male in their family?
Therefore, shouldn’t we be protecting Cecil’s pride by killing the other evil Lions?
[I’d really like to ask some animal rights wacko that]

"When a new male lion takes control of a pride, he kills all the cubs of the previous lion in order to bring the female lions back into estrus. So he can mate with them and spread his genes.
Its the reason we are all here."
Wow! A lion on Freerepublic! How cool is that!

Please! Stop the lion on lion violence!
To: SeekAndFind
Perhaps we should just give those old vs new alpha males that wish to destroy, space to do that as well?

I guess the rival lion didn’t get the socialist justice warrior networking meme about Cecil.
