Lion trophy

 

Friends, animal lovers, and compassionate people concerned about wildlife conservation,

We're on the cusp of a major victory for lion conservation! For some time now, our petition on Change.org, calling on the UK government to ban the import of lion trophies, has been gathering incredible momentum. Thanks to the unwavering support of animal lovers like you, we've already reached an astounding 889,641 signatures!

This groundswell of public opinion sends a powerful message that the cruel and outdated practice of trophy hunting is unacceptable. Importing these trophies into the UK only serves to legitimize this damaging activity, and we are so close to making a real difference in the survival of these majestic creatures.

But we're not there yet. To truly amplify our voice and exert maximum pressure on the UK government to push forward with new legislation – even a temporary moratorium in the short term – we need to reach our target of one million signatures. With your continued help, we can cross this crucial finish line and make a tangible impact.

For too long, lions have faced numerous threats, and trophy hunting only exacerbates their vulnerability. Banning the import of their trophies into the UK would be a significant step towards protecting these iconic animals and sending a clear message that their lives are worth more than a hunter's souvenir.

We're so close to a million – here's how you can help us get there:

Sign the Petition (if you haven't already!): If you haven't yet added your name, please click here to do so now! Every single signature counts. 


Share the Momentum: We've come this far thanks to incredible sharing! Please continue to spread the word about the petition with your friends, family, and social media networks. Let them know we're on the verge of hitting one million and urge them to add their voice. Use the hashtags #BanLionTrophies and #RoarForChange.


Remind Others: If you know people who care about wildlife, give them a gentle nudge to sign and share. Sometimes a friendly reminder is all it takes.


Reaching one million signatures will be a resounding testament to the power of collective action. It will make it impossible for the government to ignore the strength of public feeling on this issue and will significantly bolster our efforts to secure a ban on lion trophy imports.

Let's harness this incredible momentum and push past the one-million mark. Together, we can make a real difference for lions.

Thank you for being a part of this vital movement.
