There's some horrible stuff happening, both large-scale and small:

"The death of a single elephant â or lion, such as Cecil â is sad. But
our anger should really be aimed at the species-threatening scale of the
illegal wildlife trade"
We have the same reaction to human tragedies as well, unfortunately.
Also via Muse, who added:
"The big picture about what is happening in Africa. The solution is
learning how to share with this continent—how to ensure the well-being
of its people as well as it flora and fauna."
