brToday we are back on the trail of the canned lion breeding with guests Drew Abrahamson and Paul Tully of Captured In Africa, who’s mission is to bring awareness through safari, the tourism sector and through schools, of canned lion industry and its spin-offs of urban 'lion safari parks', the cub-petting and lion walking 'parks' which on the whole are a cover for the insidious canned hunting of lions who’s sole purpose on earth is to raise profits to breed more lions for the trophy hunting industry which insidiously feeds the illegal markets in lion bone trade and trafficking. Drew and Paul take us through the chain of events of captive lions vs. 'reserves' in a country where wildlife is completely fenced in, and the campaigns and advocacy work in educating 'voluntourists' and school children toward advocacy for Africa’s dwindling wild lion populations.

Captured in Africa with Drew Abrahamson and Paul Tully

Working to save Africa’s big cats, Drew Abrahamson founded Captured In Africa out of a pure love and passion for them and the African bush. Growing up around rangers and wildlife veterinarians, Drew had many close encounters with wild animals, and has cultivated a deep love, understanding and mutual respect for all living things. Her passion for lions began early in life, but she detoured several years to become a hairdresser and a mom. She got back on track by connecting with the dynamic Louise Joubert, director of San Wildlife Sanctuary, volunteering in fundraising and public awareness.
