But you are right - theoretically it should have been their responsibility. But since the lioness is living in the conservancy now, it was something we were happy to help with. Rosemary Hi Dana,

Wouldn't it have been their responsibility to tranquilize(sp)her? I'm just glad that you were able to fix the problem :>) My question is who put the collar on the lioness?
