http://www.lionconservationfund.org/tsavo.html
Center for Lion Conservation. Just minutes from death, Tess, an adult female lioness with 4 small cubs, was rescued from a poacher's snare by Lion Conservation Fund scientists.

Lion Conservation Fund: Join the Pride
http://www.lionconservationfund.org/donate.html
Why save African lions? As a top carnivore, lions often function as a keystone species, and, as such, play a key role in structuring and preserving biodiversity. Top predators play a role in regulating prey species which, in turn, help shape habitat and plant communities. Understanding and conserving lions, therefore, is essential to maintaining healthy ecosystems and protecting biodiversity. Help save African lions! Thank you for your support.
