A New Zealand wildlife park says it will be forced to euthanise seven elderly lions after running into financial difficulties.

The team followed four animal families - leopards, hyena, wild dogs and lions - in Zambia's Luangwa Valley, capturing rare moments and revealing the intricate dynamics of life in one of Africa's wildest regions.

“And the lion’s share of that has been generated by firms that you could count on two hands,” he added.

Big predators like lions and polar bears can afford to pursue large, energy-rich prey because their slower metabolism and greater energy stores let them endure repeated failed hunts.

Retail makes up the lion’s share of Amazon’s revenue even though it’s less profitable than advertising and the cloud.
