A restaurant in the US has received death threats after it putting lion meat on its menu in honor of the World Cup in South Africa. Il Vinaio restaurant in Phoenix, Arizona, has received one bomb threat and around 250 emails from animal rights activists after announcing its new dish.
"We have access to some really exotic meats that are USDA-approved," owner Cameron Selogie said.
"One of the ones that raised eyebrows was the lion," he added.
The big cat is not illegal to eat in the US and Mr Selogie insists the lions used to make the burgers were raised on a free-range farm.. okay but This just got me thinking..what the eefffin? We DONT EAT LION MEAT!!!! If I knew their number I'd place some death threats maself....Lion meat? Of all things to honor the world cup with, lion meat?

"We've had quite a few customers asking us off the cuff when are we going to serve some lion," the restaurateur went on.
"In Africa they do eat lions. "So I assume if it's OK for Africans to eat lions then it should be OK for us." what the hell is that supposed to mean? Do we eat Lion meat? I've never ate Lion meat? Lion meat? seriously? Lions are decreasing in Africa and wildlife organizations are doing they're best to hold on to them and these stupid arses are serving them to honor the world cup?! Serving up a threatened species is sending the wrong message...
