Schwartz, M.
Conservation is it warped by a love for animals?
2015  Swara: 31-34

When an American dentist shot Cecil the lion in Zimbabwe, he had no idea that he and his "sport" would also become targets of animal rights campaigners and conservationists alike. The international media storm has brought the debate about "consumptive" use of wildlife back into the public arena for discussion. SWARA commissioned this article long before the story about Cecil became news to demonstrate that it is a forum for all informed opinion in the world of conservation. This story does not represent EAWLS views.
