A big crowd gathered outside of Mandalay Bay on Saturday to protest trophy hunting during Safari Club International's national convention at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center.
 
Organizers say they are outraged that the Safari Club gives people awards for their kills.
 
The protest was actually one of 30 happening around the world in memory of Cecil the lion, who was killed by a dentist from Minnesota over the summer.
