Asiatic lions aren’t ‘endangered’ anymore, just ‘vulnerable’: IUCN

0
Gujarat can now take pride in the reclassification of the Asiatic lion from endangered to vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). This change in conservation status, as indicated in IUCN's latest global report, reflects a positive shift for the iconic species. The report also highlights a notable distinction in the risk of decline between African and Indian lions. The likelihood of a 33% decline in the lion population in Africa is 19 times higher than in India, mainly attributed to widespread poaching in the African region.
