案例简介：Photo by Karine Aigner @kaigner / White lions are not albino; they're leucistic, which means they have a recessive mutation of genes that cause their coats to be white to blonde, rather than tawny. A cub is born white only if both of parents carry the recessive gene. White lions once roamed wild in the Timbavati area of South Africa. Their presence threads through the cultural history of the Sepedi and Tsonga communities, who revered the white lion and considered it sacred, divine, sent from above. But decades of trophy hunting, first started by Europeans, wiped out the white lion's wild gene pool. They were also put in zoos and bred in captivity; today they are still put in canned hunts and as cute blue-eyed cubs put in petting zoos. Putting pressure on exploitive places can help close them down—deeply research places with white lions before supporting them; many are not as “conservation oriented” as they state, especially not ones with lion cubs of any age.
