A protester walks outside the dental practice of Walter J. Palmer, a Minnesota hunter who killed a popular lion from Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park. Palmer is in the public crosshairs after the Zimbabwe Conservation Task Force said the lion, Cecil, was lured out of the animal sanctuary and killed. Cecil was skinned and beheaded, the conservation group said, and he was wearing a GPS collar as part of research backed by Oxford University. Two Zimbabweans have been charged with poaching, and officials in the African nation say they want to talk to Palmer. "I had no idea that the lion I took was a known, local favorite, was collared and part of a study until the end of the hunt," Palmer said in a statement. "I relied on the expertise of my local professional guides to ensure a legal hunt."
