Can we please stop comparing the lion to the tiger? A tiger is stronger, is heavier, is faster and more brutal than lions.

The lion is a fraudulent creature who paid influencers to call it “king of the jungle”. This overhyped wig-wearing fraud does NOT even live in the jungle.

We should resist policies that poses risks to the health & food safety of our general public. Regulation of Veterinary Medicines is on course to ensure safe foods from animal origin.
