Lions bred to be shot in South Africa Canned Hunting

Filipino netizens are outraged as photos surfaced of Former Chavit Singson who killed a lion and an antelope, we've stumbled upon this documentary video of Patrick Barkham, saying there are now more captive lions in South Africa than wild ones, and many of these animals are reared specifically to be shot and owned by wealthy tourists from Europe and North America.

Watch the documentary of Patrick Barkham who visits a lion-breeding farm in North Eastern Free State, South Africa, to investigate the relationship between the rearing of lions in captivity and the so-called 'canned hunting' industry.
