The Lion - Original Animal Painting Series
The Lion
The lion population in Africa has been reduced by half since the early 1950s. Today, fewer than 21,000 remain in all of Africa. Only about 1 in 8 male lions survive to adulthood, the majority of lions die shortly after being kicked out of their pride around the age of 2. Trophy hunting is also extemely devastating for lions. When an adult male (the most sought-after trophy) is killed, his death destabilizes and may destroy an entire pride. This in turn wipes out the genes of the largest and most healthy males.
All images in this series are my own work. Images without watermarks are available.
