The Last Lions Documentary

National Geographic has a new documentary/movie called The Last Lions. I believe it opened in theaters on February 11th, on a limited basis; the film is opening here at Sundance 608 (an artsy theater here in Madison) this Friday, so be sure to check to see if/when it will be opening in your area.

If you go to the official The Last Lions website, you can get additional information about the movie, as well as enter a sweepstakes for a trip to Botswana, and watch a trailer.

This movie comes at a time when a coalition of animal welfare groups are seeking protection for the African lion, whose numbers are at sharp declines. The coalition includes Born Free USA, Born Free Foundation, Defenders of Wildlife, Humane Society of the United States, International Fund for Animal Welfare, and Humane Society International.
