Zimbabweans feel somewhat bemused by the attention the world is giving to the killing of a lion called Cecil.
“As names go, it was a curious choice for a Zimbabwean lion - it would be like Asmara Zoo calling a lion Benito in a not so subtle nod to Mussolini, Eritrea’s Italian coloniser,” says columnist Farai Sevenzo.
As the matter of fact the lion’s death has not registered much with the locals - and to be clear, for most Zimbabweans the name is more associated with the British imperialist diamond digger Cecil John Rhodes, serving as a reminder that the country once bore the name Rhodesia
The lion was later skinned and beheaded, according to the Zimbabwe Conservation Task Force (ZCTF), a local charity.
The animal had a GPS collar fitted for a research project by UK-based Oxford University that allowed authorities to track its movements.
The hunters had tried to destroy it but failed, according to the ZCTF.
