The Mint says about this coin:

Let’s protect the nature for future generations! We must not allow illegal poaching! Cecil the Lion, the world’s most famous lion and the symbol of Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe, was killed at the age of 13. Cruel fate befell Cecil when he was shot dead by an enthusiast of the big game hunting, a dentist from Minnesota. The lion was lured from the Park, wounded with a bow and finally killed with the use of a riffle. Cecil’s killing created an outrage among ecological conservationists and lovers of animals around the world.
