S9. E20: Daniel Kaul: The Brutal Life Cycle of Captive Lions
“We don't know one case where a lion which was hand fed or bottle fed was released successfully in the wild. Of course, if they see humans and they understand that humans is the connection to food, it will be always a danger to put those lions back in the wild. And many of those companies use that as an excuse why this conservation project is important, but we don't think so and we don't believe that of course. It's in my opinion, nonsense.”
– Daniel Kaul
Daniel Kaul is the founder of Natucate, an environmental travel company that works to build a safer, more sustainable eco-tourism industry. Unfortunately, the eco-tourism industry has been hijacked by a lot of bad players who are taking advantage of animal lovers. And, some of the animals that are suffering the most because of these bad players, are lions.
Please listen, share and don’t participate in any tourism that involves interacting with wild animals.
In gratitude,
Elizabeth Novogratz
