In three days, the lion's wounds had completely improved.
Professor Pang and Ding Wen had already left to attend their academic forum, and Chen Ying stayed behind to assist in treating and caring for the female lion.
Professor Careyes received news the night before that someone had again sneaked into the National Park to poach animals such as antelopes and water buffaloes.
"These animals are an important food source for the West African Lion, and due to farmland expansion, wildfires, and poaching, the West African Lion's habitat has already shrunk by ninety-five percent."
Two students who were responsible for helping Chen Ying take care of the female lion squatted nearby, chatting with him about the difficulties Panthera had encountered here while they watched Chen Ying stroke Big Cat.
Poaching exists in every country, but it's especially serious in underdeveloped nations.
