Lions are the largest cats in Africa and have been admired by Mankind for aeons.
They are now under serious threat of extinction and there are more stone lions in the world than wild lions.
Although lions are top of the food chain in Africa, they lead hard and violent lives, few of them living into old age.
In this talk, I describe their lives, their hunting prowess and the threats ranged against them. I also describe some of my own encounters with lions in the wild.
If these iconic animals disappear, the world will be a poorer place.

I am a Zimbabwean Writer, Adventurer and Conservationist, now resident on Dartmoor. Having been raised in the wilds of Central Africa, I am passionate to the point of fanaticism about elephants and can bring considerable knowledge of other iconic species of African wildlife to my talks.
Although I enjoy doing after dinner talks and addressing luncheon clubs and giving motivational talks to business organisations, I am also happy to talk to smaller groups such as Probus, WI and Rotary. In fact, I will address any groups if circumstances permit.
I carry my own equipment, but am always happier if a screen is provided as mine is inclined to be small for larger venues.
I do charge a basic fee and mileage for my talks but am always happy to negotiate if a group cannot afford my charges.
