On the couch: Lion Protection Laws with Four Paws

Pippa Hudson speaks to Fiona Miles from Four Paws about South Africa’s move to halt new captive lion breeding facilities, a decision seen as a major shift for animal welfare and conservation. The conversation unpacks the impact on controversial practices like cub petting and canned hunting, what this means for existing lions in captivity, and how the industry could be phased out in the years ahead.
