The US dentist who sparked an international outcry after killing a lion in Zimbabwe will not be prosecuted because he had obtained the legal authority to hunt.

Walter Palmer admitted to killing Cecil the lion in July but has always denied that he acted illegally.

According to BBC News, Zimbabwe’s Environment Minister Oppah Muchinguri said he could not be charged as all his “papers were in order”. She said Zimbabwe would now review how it issues hunting licences.
