"A man was arrested at the OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg,
South Africa, on 23 June 2023 with five lion carcasses in his luggage. He was
about to board a flight to Vietnam, where the use of lion bones in traditional
medicines is practised.
The seizure is commendable but highlights South Africa’s controversial legal
industry of breeding lions in captivity. Wildlife researchers Neil D'Cruze and
Jennah Green, who have studied lion farming in South Africa, share their
insights into the industry and explain why it should be shut down."
