Why do people like killing lions?

Answer 1

Answer
WHY WHERE LIONS HUNTED ?
I think the lion were hunted because they use to hunt farmers stock.
So the farmers would have a shot gun and shoot the lions when they came near their farm lands.
There also was the problem of people who hunted lions for the fun of it
they would go out and hunt for the lions and then shot them and skin them and leave the reast to rot.
Or they would take the whole lion and sell the meat and get the body stuffed so they could have them in their house as a tropy.



Also, the Barbary Lions which are now extinct in the wild, weren't hunted but, they were used in the Roman times to do this:
