Declare all the lions, elephants, rhinos, hippos, leopards, and giraffes as protected species under South African law

Animals should be protected under law, because their value to tourism is much worth more alive than dead. A live elephant can make millions of dollars over its 70-year lifespan, but a dead elephant only makes thousands of dollars. A live lion brings in more than 3 million dollars over its 10-year lifespan, but a dead one only brings in thousands of dollars. Animals like these should be protected under South African law, and kept safe from any threat.
