A class-action lawsuit by private rhino owners could be on the cards after a high-level panel recommended phasing out intensive management and rhino captive breeding operations.

’T Sas-Rolfes was one of the few panel members who approved phasing out lion captive lion breeding but argued for the lion bone trade to be retained. “I do think this is a huge problem, it’s a welfare problem, it’s an image problem for South Africa, and we do want to move away from it, but the question is how. We need to be smart about how we do this and not create an even bigger mess.”

‘T Sas-Rolfes said: “I’m personally not convinced the lion bone trade is threatening wild lions. And I’m concerned that cutting off the last legal supply of cheap big cat body parts worldwide could create more problems itself and could drive the trade underground.” A lion attempts to jump the fence of its enclosure, at a lion breeding farm near Tosca, in the North West Province. , said the commercial captive lion breeding industry could take years to be phased out. “The champagne shouldn’t be opened just yet … The root of the problem is the demand from trophy hunters for living targets and, from Asians, for lion bone products. So long as the demand exists, soldiers of fortune will spring from the soil to find a way to supply it.

“When you read the report in its entirety, much has been made and ululating about the canned lion hunting decision, which is 20 years overdue, and I think it was a Machiavellian strategy … it’s distracted everybody. The big issues here are the ongoing, persistent and rabid commodification of wildlife — and the leopard specifically has been put on the altar in this decision.”
