I am quite certain that will be the case. It will likely require a series of counseling sessions, concluding with the consumption of the psychiatrist. Time will be of the essence, as it will be important to recover the remains of the psychiatrist for the family. After all, who wants to bury cat scat in the family plot??I wonder if a formal psychiatric evaluation is needed to determine if the lion was "troubled"?
I've drawn up a chair, opened some popcorn, have a steaming mug of hot chocolate and am eagerly awaiting the posts on this one from those far wittier than I.

I have heard from others that if it is a nuisance/ troubled lion you may be able to get permits to import into the U.S.?
Problem animals in Namibia are exportable permits (unlikely to be imported into USA though). The problem with your statement “trouble or nuisance lion should be shot” though is to an African villager every lion, leopard, elephant is a problem animal. A lot of the permits issued probably shouldn’t be. People go out at night or move their cattle where they shouldn’t then lion is to blame. They should just give a yearly or multi year planned quota, but politics don’t let that happen everywhere anymore so problem permits get issued and bring in much less revenue.A trouble or Nuisance Lion should be shot.
I do wonder if a Problem Lion could be exported/Imported as a Trophy. I suspect not.
I think even a man killer Lion would be restricted. These days it probably up to authorities to Hunt a dispatch man killers so I doubt they can be kept as trophies. .
Yep, fair call.Problem animals in Namibia are exportable permits (unlikely to be imported into USA though).
