Three poachers were killed in the the Sibuya Game Reserve in South Africa, but not by men.
They were eaten by lions.
It is believed that the three men illegally entered the game reserve to poach rhinos. Instead they found themselves in an unusual — and deadly — situation.
“They strayed into a pride of lions – it’s a big pride so they didn’t have too much time,” Mr. Fox told AFP news agency. “We’re not sure how many there were – there’s not much left of them.”
The lions needed to be tranquilized before anyone could approach the remains of the poachers. Because of this, the bodies were not recovered right away.
Eventually recovered at the scene were: three pairs of shoes, various limbs, and a head. In addition, equipment often used by poachers for cutting off rhino horns were also recovered.
Some people felt that the poachers got exactly what they deserved. Ricky Gervais, who’s a comedian, actor, write, and director, posted dryly, “Rest in pieces.”

Other people were concerned about the lions, and the reserve was contacted about their health after the attack. The lions didn’t show any changes in behavior, according to Fox.
“We have received many questions relating to the future of the six lions involved in the tragic incident surrounding the killing of suspected poachers.
“The six lions involved were darted (anesthetized) from a game viewing vehicle and their reaction to the vehicle at that time was closely monitored by myself, the veterinary staff as well as our conservation staff. Their behaviour appeared no different from that exhibited towards these vehicles over the last ten years.”
It is generally accepted in the game industry that lions see a game-viewing vehicle containing people as something very different than people walking on the ground.
At the Sibuya Game Reserve, people are only allowed to see game from specialized game-viewing vehicles. They aren’t allowed to be on foot because of the dense bush and shrubbery on the premises.
“Over the last few days game guides and anti-poaching staff have continued to drive game viewing vehicles in the vicinity of this pride to check for any behavioural differences and they have confirmed that to date there have been none.
“Although we will continue to be extremely vigilant we remain positive that this incident will not necessitate any changes to the status quo of our lions.”
Poaching is a significant problem in Africa. Rhino horns are believed to have special, medicinal properties, and demand for them is steady in Asia. However, they’re made from the same material as human fingernails.
This year, nine rhinos have been killed so far by poachers in Eastern Cape province, where this reserve is located.

I've been on quite a few photographic African safaris (South Africa/Zambia). The animals are incredible and as long as you stay seated in the safari vehicle they pay you no mind.
Anybody who kills these animals as a trophy should be hung. especially Rhinos. So low key and majestic.

I heard the lions look at the vehicle filled with people as essentially one big animal.

I wonder which poacher was dessert. ;D

If people are going to hunt and kill a lion, do it without guns or knives. make your own weapons out of sticks and rocks then have at it. Make it a fair fight. Sitting 100 yards away with a gun is not hunting. It's target practice.

Couldn't agree with you more.

That's kinda of what they do. The tour guides told us to just be still and make no noise as we approached the animals in the vehicle. I literally was about two feet away from a male lion as it walked by and it didn't even notice me- or appeared to notice. One early morning game safari a guy next to me stood up to take a pic as we came upon a pride of lions devouring a kill. Suddenly one of the lions stopped and turned to look at him- it was intense. The guide whispered to "slowly sit down" and the animal returned to eating.
I saw rhinos, cheetahs, elephants, lions, giraffes, etc all from just a few feet away. The animals are a perfect part of nature and only kill to eat. I have developed a deep respect for animals as a result of these experiences.
Humans and even some chimps have this perverse habit of killing just to kill...

Proud fucking losers. I just don't get why Americans are so fucking stupid and worship Trump and his family. Solid pieces of shit from top to bottom. I'm not even talking politics here.

I don't think any one really worships Biden or his ilk. He's just the one in power now, and we the people for better or worse have to deal with it.

Africans are fucking clowns, with absolutely no control over their country 400 years later. Imagine if Russia was Africa with those resources. They'd be decapitating MFers live on TV. No fear Chinese will own the country in 30 years. Phucking losers.

they are beautiful majestic animals, and that's the only reason anybody cares about them being killed
pigs and cows are gentle unlike a lion, but they're ugly so nobody cares
