By now everyone on the internet has had their say on Cecil the Lion.

There has been widespread condemnation for Walter Palmer, the American who shot and killed the lion, collared as part of an Oxford University study.

The dentist from Minnesota spent £32,000 to shoot the Zimbabwean lion with a crossbow and has been in hiding during the subsequent anger at Cecil's killing.

Arnold Schwarzenegger added his voice to the condemnation on Instagram:

Who knew Arnie was so good at going viral, and for all the right reasons?
