Q: HARARE The brother of Cecil, the lion killed in Zimbabwe by an American hunter last month, is not dead, a researcher monitoring the pride told Reuters, contradicting media reports that Jericho had been killed. 
  
 "He looks alive and well to me as far as I can tell," said Brent Stapelkamp, field researcher for the Hwange Lion Research Project which is monitoring the lion with a GPS tag. 
  
 A group called the Zimbabwe Conservation Task Force posted on its Facebook page that Jericho had been killed at 4 p.m. on Saturday, a report picked up by some Western news media that was rapidly spread on Twitter. 
  
 That generated a furious reaction on the social networking site where animal lovers had already been expressing their fury at the killing on July 1 of Cecil, a rare black-maned lion that was a familiar sight at Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park. 
  
 Stapelkamp said readings from Jericho's GPS tag indicated he was moving around as usual and appeared to be with a female. 
  
 "When I heard that report, I had a look on the computer and his movements look regular. He sent a GPS point from his collar from 8:06 p.m. (02:06 p.m. EDT). Everything looks fine," Stapelkamp told Reuters. 
  
 Earlier on Saturday, Zimbabwe's parks authority imposed an indefinite ban on big game hunting outside the national park from which Cecil was lured before being killed on July 1. 
  
 A source at the parks agency told Reuters a second lion had been killed illegally by a foreign hunter in Zimbabwe on July 3. That has not been confirmed by officials.

 Jericho the lion is alive and roaming his park habitat in Zimbabwe, the Oxford University researcher tracking the lion confirmed on Sunday. 
  
 Brent Stapelkamp dismissed reports that the lion had been killed, saying a GPS device on Jericho didn't suggest anything out of the ordinary. Furthermore, the Zimbabwe Conservation Task Force, which told CNN and other media that poachers killed Jericho, retracted its statements on Sunday. 
  
 The head of the conservation task force, Johnny Rodrigues, said in a new statement that the erroneous information was the result of mistaken identity. Rodrigues said that another lion had been killed, something that CNN cannot immediately verify. 
  
 As proof of life, Oxford University tweeted a photo of Jericho, taken by Stapelkamp early Sunday morning. |||||
A:
Those outraged by the death of Cecil the lion have one big question today: How's Jericho? That would be Cecil's brother, and there's conflicting reports about his well-being. A senior official with Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe tells CNN that he was shot dead by an illegal hunter. "It is with huge disgust and sadness that we have just been informed that Jericho, Cecil's brother has been killed at 4pm today," the Zimbabwe Conservation Task Force said on Facebook. Sounds definitive, but a report from Reuters raises hope that he's OK. "He looks alive and well to me as far as I can tell," says Brent Stapelkamp, field researcher for the Hwange Lion Research Project, which has been monitoring Jericho via GPS. When Stapelkamp heard the news that Jericho was dead, he checked the computer and found that the lion's movements looked fine. In fact, the lion's collar "sent a GPS point" hours after the animal was supposedly killed. It may take a while to straighten out the confusion. (Meanwhile, Zimbabwe hopes to have Cecil's American killer extradited to face charges.)
