A Time of Return, Resilience and Crown Celebration
In the aftermath of the recent floods, our Land and our People profoundly tested. There was much to indicate that our Lions understood better The Force behind this great purging. However, as waters raged through the northern territories of Malachite, sections of our perimeter fencing were washed down, allowing two of our great kings, Regna and Tsweli, to...

In Conversation with Linda Tucker: White Lions are our living heritage
South Africa’s Heritage Day gives each one of us the perfect opportunity to acknowledge the White Lions as a living heritage in the hearts and minds of humanity. Moreover, it reminds us of our interconnectedness with Nature and our role in handing over the Flame of Life to future generations, as indigenous peoples did for thousands of years before us.
Ingwavuma: StarLion on Earth

In Conversation with Linda Tucker: How can we turn rage into positive action?
Journalist Shamin Chibba was first invited to the Global White Lion Protection Trust in 2016 with a team of media professionals in preparation for his coverage of the CITES COP17.

The first looks at how, in the face of merciless exploitation of our natural world, we can turn rage into positive action.

Earth Day 2023 – A Day of Honouring

Marah: Mother of the Sun-God buried in the sands of time
This Easter, in the first of our Star Lion featurettes, we honour Marah, the founding queen of the Global White Lion Protection Trust. Her life – and departure – initiated the re-membering and restoration of humanity’s contract with the Earth.
