Unethical animal husbandry, a disgrace. Lions are bred here specifically for exhibition and abuse.

An absolutely exceptional experience from start to finish. ​The dedication here to rehabilitating lions for eventual release into the wild is truly inspiring, and knowing that visitor fees go directly toward supporting those conservation efforts makes it all the more worthwhile. It is completely clear that the lions are exceptionally well looked after, healthy, and treated with the utmost care and respect. ​To anyone claiming this is cruel or questioning why the animals aren't in the wild right now: they will be, once their rehabilitation is complete and they are resdy. For those who argue they belong in the wild immediately, I would simply ask do you apply that same logic to animals like dogs, cats, and fish? ​A must-visit for anyone genuinely passionate about animal welfare and wildlife conservation.

This is immoral and disgusting. If you have a brain (and a heart) please don't do it. How can you think of doing a walk with lions?? This is totally against nature and only for MONEY.
