To Walk with Lions

To Walk with Lions is a 1999 film starring Richard Harris as George Adamson and John Michie as Tony Fitzjohn. It follows the later years of wild game preservernaturalist Adamson.

Years pass and Koras lions are being picked off by herdsmen one by one with bullets and poison and the elephants and rhinos are being poached at an alarming rate for their tusks and horns. The Adamson brothers are expending all of their energies in protecting the wildlife but can hardly compete as Fitzjohn observes A ranger may make 800 shillings a month but a poacher will pay him 10,000 just to turn his back for a day. The odds seem to be insurmountable as the poachers pile in and the animal death toll rises while the local government decides that it doesnt really want a wildlife preserve at all.
