No money, no food: Pakistan zoo managers sell lions, tigers to save resources

Lahore Zoo authorities have reportedly taken the decision so that they would save space and money.

Tanveer Ahmed Janjua has reportedly said that 12 big cats will be auctioned on August 11.

The Zoo authorities have set the minimum bid for the lion at $700 but they are expecting to earn around 20 lakh Pakistani Rupees per lion.

Meanwhile, animal activists have opposed the decision of the Zoo authorities to auction the animals by suggesting either shifting the lions to other zoos or giving contraceptives to female lions.
