Drop a 0

The kings of the jungles, lions, happen to be dwindling in their numbers. In the 1980s, there were 200,000 lions and now there are only 20,000 in Africa. The reason in such a decline is because of the sport and trophy hunting. Also since tourism has not remained a huge factor in communities, there is not need to keep the lions alive for the random tourists that happen to show every few weeks now. I do not believe this gives poachers and hunters the right to start killing the animals. In order to stop this I think that tourists need to start to want to see these great animals again.
