US dentist Walter Palmer, who is known for killing Cecil the lion in Zimbabwe, will not be charged for his actions.
According to BBC News, Zimbabwe's Environment minister stated that Dr. Palmer cannot be charged for Cecil's killing because all of his legal papers were in order.
Palmer's action stirred outrage to the point where both his dental office and members of his family were targeted by protesters.
Cecil the lion was a huge attraction in Hwange National Park and he was much loved by all of his visitors.
Palmer claims that if he had known that Cecil was a well-known lion he wouldn't have taken its life.
Palmer has recently returned to work after a two-month absence due to the protesters.
