Cites
Is the Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species of which lions are listed in appendix two. Lions are therefore entitled to protection. Lions imported into South Africa have to get a permit from the CITES authority in South Africa and the country exporting the animals. Where is the protection for these lions?
