Tiny Treasures - Lion Cub

I am very pleased to be offering this sketch of a lion cub for collectors to add to their collection. Not only are big cats one of my favourite subjects but I have a special place in my heart for a lion cub.

Lions are the most social of the cat species, and their reliance on one another is key to their survival. The most amazing sight to behold is a super pride of lions whose very existence is fearsome and well respected.

But, lions need huge swathes of territory to exist and that land, in a burgeoning world, is shrinking. The population growth of Africa has this species under threat. Added to that, along with a growing human population, poaching for a variety of reasons has seen lion populations plummet in the last few decades. It is estimated that it could be as low as 25 000 and at its highest it could be 39 000. In 1900 there were around 200 000 lions in Africa and Asia. Just this fact should make us sit up and take note.

We need to do more.
