In this capacity, the protection of animals is a core focus.<\/p>\n<p>Travellers are continually drawn to Africa&#8217;s nations to catch sight of the continent&#8217;s big cats, but over the past two decades, the African lion population has declined by an estimated 43 per cent, with only 20,000 lions remaining across the entire continent. While lions have disappeared entirely from some areas, other populations are considered Regionally Critically Endangered, due to habitat loss, poaching and human-wildlife conflict.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6619\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2016\/08\/LioninAfrica_iStock_sofiaworld_www.istockphoto-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"World Lion Day\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/LioninAfrica_iStock_sofiaworld_www.istockphoto-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/LioninAfrica_iStock_sofiaworld_www.istockphoto-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/LioninAfrica_iStock_sofiaworld_www.istockphoto-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/LioninAfrica_iStock_sofiaworld_www.istockphoto-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/LioninAfrica_iStock_sofiaworld_www.istockphoto-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/LioninAfrica_iStock_sofiaworld_www.istockphoto.jpg 1698w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the face of these devastating statistics, WildAid have unveiled the #LetLionsLive campaign, calling for the global community to \u201cStand with Africa to Let Lions Live&#8221;, while assisting African governments&#8217; conservation efforts, empowering communities to co-exist with lions, and preventing loss of the lions&#8217; prey. Considering previous successes WildAid have had, we are optimistic that this work will achieve the same results for lions.<\/p>\n<p>While there are far fewer Asiatic lions than there are of their African cousins, numbers have in fact increased over the decades due to the success of conservation initiatives and the careful protection of the land they roam, the Gir Forest National Reserve. But with such a small population and isolated habitat, they still need to be protected from threats such as habitat loss, lack of prey, poaching, and again, human-wildlife conflict.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6620\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2016\/08\/Lionpride_iStock_GuenterGuni_www.istockphoto-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"World Lion Day\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Lionpride_iStock_GuenterGuni_www.istockphoto-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Lionpride_iStock_GuenterGuni_www.istockphoto-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Lionpride_iStock_GuenterGuni_www.istockphoto-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Lionpride_iStock_GuenterGuni_www.istockphoto-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Lionpride_iStock_GuenterGuni_www.istockphoto-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Lionpride_iStock_GuenterGuni_www.istockphoto.jpg 1698w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>World Lion Day was established as a global initiative that celebrates these majestic animals while raising awareness of their plight across Africa and India.
