Big cat conservation is complicated

A broad view of the issues around big cat conservation and it's clear nothing is straightforward. When you realise that big cats inhabit a diverse range of habitat and different array of threats within each of those environments it is obvious one model does not fit all. What threatens the existence of a lion in Africa will be different from the threat faced by a cougar in North America. What is obvious is that something must be done and urgently to stop the decline in the populations of these amazing predators that have been on the planet millions of years. In the such a short time human populations and the various threats we pose in either poaching, trophy hunting or encroachment is contributing to the very real possibility these magnificent animals will no longer stalk the jungles and plains and wild places of earth. For me no tragedy could be greater than to see this happen my lifetime.
