Cecil The Lion projected onto Empire State Building along with other endangered animals

This Oyibo peope sef! Their outrage over a lion being killed makes you wonder. What about the endangered humans? Unarmed American citizens being killed by cops? Oh well... So, last night, New York's Empire State Building flashed digital light projections of world's endangered species including those of Cecil The Lion whose death sparked international outrage.

Louie Psihoyos, director of the Oscar- winning film exploring dolphin hunting in Japan, The Cove, who came up with the idea said,
"There's only 3,500 wild male lions out there. The gun lobby keeps them from being on the list but they are endangered," Psihoyos told NBC. See the photos after the cut...

yawanow said...

beautiful exhibit but the motive behind it is irrelevant, instead they can start by the pictures of innocent citizens killed by Police or during war. It should be #Humans over animals#

Linda, We've killed ourselves too much that its nothing new.
But for mankind to transfer his madness, insanity & absolute psychological breakdown on ANIMALS is outrageous.

They have misplaced priorities!bunch of idiots.wen a lion mauled a girl in south Africa a while ago,it didn't make as much headlines as dey r publicising and raising funds for animals.bunch of idiots

I don't see anything bad in it, after all they wud soon go enstinct.... And wud only be seen in movies and cartoon just like d dinosaurs, tigers etc.... Even the lion that was shot reduced their nos... It has always been marked so it's not a new thing......

Bush Linda with myopic mind. I don't blame you, it's your African upbringing...

Calling them mumu only shows u are a myopic mumu making ur own case worse. If u don't know the important role different animals play in the world go and read up. God created u and also created the animals. The have a place on earth just as much as u do. God said look after them. Not wipe dem off the face of the earth olodo. If it's not for food and not about to attack u y kill it? On the issue of police attitude n blacks..d are also flashing it everywhere

Nicole said...

They're just trying to create a good impression and save face because the lion was killed by an American.

Unknown said...

They consider every living thing sacred, especially when they are endangered specie. That's onyibo for u.

They're doing it to annoy black people. Whenever they start on a new civil rights movement, it's to show black people how little they care about them. Yup. The race thing is that bad in America today.

Their ideology works for them. I wish ours work for us too.

A Lion dies in Africa and America won't rest till the killer is brought to book, a black man is shot by a cop in America and nothing happens, what kind of world do we live in?

Why don't they project the Chibok girls this will make more sense and be more helpful/useful....

Have u ever been tona zoo before? I doubt it.

Toronto Finest said...

None of you understands America. America is the greatest pretender ever. They are showing a fake concerns cos they want world to think they do really care. They are only doing this to save the killer from being extradited. Watch out!

Go put them up if that bothers you. It doesn'tatter of you don't have the power and the money. Start a campaign, a petition ... Do something. Sick and tired of
People complaining and trying to make one problem bigger than the other

Its sad how Africans don't care abut their culture, wildlife and heritage. One day they'll cry over lost lions and other endangered species that will never return. But today they can only finger point at other.

Unknown said...

this should make African Americans realize that animals are more valued than they are

Anonymous said...

I wonder when they'll project Sandra Bland and the numerous black people murdered by the police.

Don't mind dose 2faced racist, dey are d problem d world s having today,american is d number one world problem. I remeber a white man was asked by a journalist what he feels abt roof abi na zinc. Killing nine blacks, and d oyibo rat said what am I suppose to do with that, now dey are behaving as if dey love life too much, u pple shld getaway joor.

Linda I live in America and I have noticed that the country has so many activist. To be fair on them, there are people that are protesting for black lives all over the United states. Truth is, they have a way of maintaining animal conservation which in turn bring balance and job creation. In the state of Maryland where I live, as a registered hunter we are given notice to hunt down deer/antelopes to curtail over population.however; you can't indiscriminately hunt down animals cuz they are there for a reason. Look at Kruger national park in SA and game reserve in Kenya, they are doing a great job on conservation and hence it boost their economy through tourism. Naija should emulate these practices in Yankari game reserve and more. Linda all I am saying is that it might seem really absurd that people are outraged by this incident but I think it is valid knowing what is really behind the outrage.

A lion's life is more important that a black man's life. Are they trying to make mockery of a president or just making fools out of the people.....

Thank you my sister/brother...it lifts heart that some ppl actually appreciate thier wildlife. Africans make me cry...they care about nothing n they can sell anything. Dunno if it's poverty/desperation or is just how we are wired...even those we place on a high pedestal aren't too far from stupid. Linda u a blind mbeke leading other blind mbekes...

Na over feeding & over pleasure dey worry dem

Unknown said...

Every animal in the ecosystem is inter connected and if a certain species goes extinct.., the results can be quite devastating. AnimalAnimal rights activists have a right to be cry out over the death of Cecil just like human right activists do over the indiscriminate killings of minorities and often disadvantaged people all over the world. 3500 wild male lions remaining in the world.... That's food for thought....
