Is the lion your favorite animal? Do you dream of going on an African safari? Sadly, the king of beasts' survival is threatened due to numerous complex factors on the great African continent, not the least of which is the Tanzanian government's proposal to build a highway in Serengeti National Park which would disrupt the migration of thousands of wildebeests thereby destroying the entire ecosystem! I recently attended a fundraiser in my hometown for White Lion Global Trust and learned that due to hunting, many lion prides in Botswana, Kenya and South Africa have lost their largest dominant males because they have been repeatedly targeted by trophy hunters. This creates a downward spiral for the lion prides who need the mature males to protect the females and cubs so that their valuable lineage is passed on to future generations. On this lens animal lovers can sign important petitions, stay informed on lion conservation, learn about the White Lions of Timbavati, read what lion researchers are doing via their blogs, and support LION AID in the UK. You can still search for for great lion gift ideas here- get informative and entertaining books about lions, great lion greeting cards, learn about the best Kenya safari tours and lodges, order Swahili language tapes and armchair traveler gifts like lion photo calendars, lion Christmas cards, lion ornaments and even souvenir bumper stickers. Remember, your donation to Save the Serengeti, Lion Aid, or The White Lion Global Trust would be a great conservation gift for any animal lover.

"WHAT EVER YOU DO, DON'T RUN" , Read about the real life adventures of Peter Allison, a safari guide in Botswana. Allison's tales of tangles with lions, elephants, baboons, petulant tourists and mice will have you grinning from ear to ear. A great gift idea for the safari enthusiast.
"GOLDEN SHADOWS, FLYING HOOVES", by celebrated lion researcher George Schaller will please true lion lovers and animal lovers alike. Although less technical than "The Serengeti Lion", you will still learn many interesting facts about lion society and behaviour. Readers will be delighted by stories about the special animals Schaller's family adopted during their stay in the Serengeti, like Giri the warthog and Fungus the banded mongoose. A most enjoyable book.

The lion is an apex predator
What does this mean? If the apex predator in an ecosystem goes extinct, the entire system will be out of balance, and the ecosystem will collapse. That is why we must save the lion!

- Thanks Tipi,
I had a dream the last night of my Tanzanian safari in July of 2009 in which I was visited by 3 white lion cubs, yet I had never heard of or read about the Timbavati white lions until recently. Were the white lions trying to send me a message, or was this just a bizarre coincidence? I will let the readers decide.
