We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Derek Cattani on June 24, 2024. Derek, renowned as the official photographer of Christian the Lion, joined LionAid in 2019 and became a Director in 2022.

Derek’s passion and dedication to preserving the majestic Lions is being continued by his daughter, Katrina, who has been accepted as Trustee & Director of LionAid in his place and continues the fundraising endeavour for the Merrueshi project.

I cannot thank Derek enough for the care taken by him in respect to my order for a signed print of Christian in 1970’s London. His is customer care par excellence. His personal e-mails to me were greatly appreciated. I am also very much indebted to him, to be able to share Christian ‘s story through his moving, haunting pictures of Christian, both as a young lion in London with John and Ace and later with John, Ace and George Adamson at Kora. Through buying Derek ‘s print of Christian I have contributed in a small way to the George Adamson Wildlife preservation Trust, and that cannot be a bad thing. The natural World is a true miracle and to be losing habitats and species as we are today, is an unforgivable loss.
