Police have located the head of Cecil the lion which was kept at the house of the hunter who aided the dentist in the killing of Cecil the Lion. The hunter, Theo Bronkhorst planned to send it to a taxidermist before shipping it over to the US but turned it in upon legal advice. It is illegal to ship elephant heads to the US but hunters are permitted tos hip lion heads to the US. That may change with the new CECIL act.
It is rather unfortunate that he turned it in upon legal advice NOT a conscience conviction. It really shows that these people are still bent on killing more animals.
The hunter will most likely be slapped on the wrist with a petty fee of $400USD compared to the $55,000USD he received. The park may persue legal actions against him if found guilty.
