The administration of Lahore Zoo, however, wanted to reduce Lions family size through auction _ to fetch money and to minimize burden of expenditures being incurred on meals and care of cats family.
According to Zoo officials, they set a base price of about Rs150,000 ($700) per cat but anticipated that each lion or cub may attract Rs2 million during auction.
Nevertheless, the plan to auction lions was discarded when general public lambasted the Zoo management.
