There has been rising global awareness on the virtues of rabbit meat production and consumption in developing countries as an alternative means of alleviating world food shortage and meeting nutritional needs.

Happy International Leo Day!

Dear Leos and Lions: On December 5, 1957, Lions Jim Graver and William Ernst created the world’s first Leo club in Pennsylvania, USA. These Lions recognized the Power of We.

When Lions and Leos serve together, the impossible becomes possible. Over the past 60 years, the Leo movement has continued to grow into a network of over 7,000 clubs in 145 countries. Leos continue to build upon our association’s tradition of service to meet emerging global needs. I have witnessed the commitment and perseverance of Leos both in-person and also through the International Leo Day Video Contest.
