Can't understand why MoEF can't pass an order for removing some lions from Gir? After all Forest is a concurrent matter and Gir is also supported by central government funds. Lions are of national importance and need to be protected. They definitely need one or two more homes across India. I sincerely hope the Hon'ble Supreme Court rules in Lions' favour. The only reason India has a good chance of succeeding in saving the tigers because of the even spread of Tigers across various states.
