A 2015 book titled for these creatures “in the Balance” was written by Craig Packer, who directs the University of Minnesota center dedicated to researching them. One of these creatures named Elsa was raised by the controversial Joy Adamson, as discussed in her book Born Free. These creatures are killed in ala-mayo rituals, which may be carried out by morani of the Maasai people. In 2015, Minnesotan dentist Walter Palmer killed one of these creatures named Cecil. These animals served as models for the body of a sculpture probably built for Khafre, which is located on the plateau of Giza. For 10 points, simba is the Swahili word for what large cats that might hunt in a pride? ■END■
