My attitude towards animals has changed a lot since I’ve had (and lost) a dog I loved.
I don’t think the lion should have been shot. I think the person that chose to pen up the animal(s) should be shot.

I’m confused. You kept a dog, presumably in an enclosed space (house, yard) until it died, and now you think folks who enclose animals should be shot?
But everyone has a different way of handling things, I guess. When my favorite golden retriever passed a few years back, I went out and filled the hole in my heart with another (but different breed) dog. Actually I got 2.
You’re right, you are confused.
