Pippa Hudson speaks to Fiona Miles from Four Paws about South Africa’s move to halt new captive lion breeding facilities, a decision seen as a major shift for animal welfare and conservation.

The conversation unpacks the impact of controversial practices like cub petting and canned hunting, what this means for existing lions in captivity, and how the industry could be phased out in the years ahead.

Lunch with Pippa Hudson is your respite from hard news, a space to explore, taste, read, and reflect.
