But if I translate your attitude for food it goes like this: Yeah for food; for fat people to make them even fatter so that they need even more food to support their fat and thus even more animals will die (also in the "nature"). Every cow and pig on your plate kills more or less wild animals too.
This has been are a real massacre.

If you want you can expand this out as far as you would like to go. Every action has a reaction.
In the end, this lion didn't have to die, it died because a guy gets pleasure from shooting animals. Is calling him out and causing him the problems he has been caused going to change the world? No. In the end he will be forgotten about in a few weeks and likely will be back at work earning more money he can spend to go kill another animal and if it isn't him it will likely be someone else.
I'm just searching for answers. What need is in him that is satisfied by killing a lion?
Also, I was trying to point out that the deaths of cows and pigs and animals that are eaten at least serve a purpose and society is, in theory, better off because of them. The death of this lion does nothing for society other than temporarily fill whatever hole in in that guy's soul.
