Lion Hearted by Andew Loveridge
In 2015, an American hunter named Walter Palmer shot and killed a lion named Cecil. The lion was one of dozens slain each year in Zimbabwe, which legally licenses the hunting of big cats. But Cecil's death sparked unprecedented global outrage, igniting thousands of media reports about the peculiar circumstances surrounding this hunt. At the centre of the controversy was Dr. Andrew Loveridge, the zoologist who had studied Cecil for eight years. In Lion Hearted, Loveridge pieces together, for the first time, the fascinating life and murky details of this beloved lion's slaying.
Andrew Loveridge is a Research Fellow in the Wildlife Conservation Research Unit and at Lady Margaret Hall, University of Oxford. He has a degree from Rhodes University, South Africa, and a doctorate in Zoology from University of Oxford. Born and raised in Zimbabwe, he has dedicated the last eighteen years to understanding the lives of big-cats and how to protect them from the threats they face in the twenty-first century. He is married with two children.
