not sure if this will be carried by all PBS stations but there is a show on tonite at 8 pm, Nature: india s wandering lions

not certain, but they may be the last Asiatic lions that survive, tho there may still be a few in Persia IIRC

promises to be interesting, as the locals and the lions seem to have reached a sort of truce, aided by the gov t, IIRC

this is a new special and apparently there has been great progress in ensuring the survival of the species in a section of india since I last studied the subject....

eta- nope, apparently the last of the Persian lions were killed in 1944

why do such thoughts make me want to puke?

we ve done a helluva job managing our "dominion" , eh?

when the big guy comes back to check on his garden he ain t gonna be happy

progress...., you can have it. it ll be the death of us all

cheers to india.

"Persia" has been known as Iran for over 80 years now, wes.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?
