The two men were allegedly paid 50 thousand dollars - around 32 thousand pounds - by U.S. dentist Walter Palmer to let him hunt and kill the animal - known by locals as Cecil. Mr Palmer is now facing a major public backlash, but has insisted he thought the hunting trip was legal, as Sky's U.S. correspondent Dominic Waghorn reports.
