The downfall of the king of the beasts

Lions are one of the most iconic animals on the planet. It is easy to see why they have been admired throughout history. These big cats are formidable predators with extraordinary senses – their night vision is six times better than a human’s; they can hear prey from up to a mile away; and they are the second fastest wild cat on Earth. 

But it’s not all magnificence and splendour. Lions are in trouble. Real trouble.

There may be as few as 20,000 lions left in the wild. In fact, lions have disappeared from over 90% of their historical range.

This is why lions need your help. 

FFI is protecting some of Africa’s crucial areas that harbour lions. With your support, we can make sure that these areas are safeguarded for the future. Safe from conflict with humans. Safe for the lions to hunt and thrive in peace.  If we want to keep lions in the wild we must act now. So, please, donate today to protect lions.
