Lions 1 - poachers nil

[imastawka]

A suspected poacher was mauled to death and eaten by a pack of lions close to the Kruger National Park in South Africa, police said Monday, adding that little was left of the victim's body.

The remains were found at the weekend in the bush at a private game park near Hoedspruit in the northern province of Limpopo, where animals have been poached in increasing numbers over recent years.

"It seems the victim was poaching in the game park when he was attacked and killed by lions. They ate his body, nearly all of it, and just left his head and some remains," Limpopo police spokesman Moatshe Ngoepe told AFP.

A loaded hunting rifle was found near the body on Saturday morning. Police are trying to establish the victim's identity.

Just reading all the responses & it seems that everyone is quite happy.

For some reason it made me think of those news segments you see sometimes. The ones where a senior policeman comes on and says what a terrible tragedy it is that some louts in a stolen car were killed in a crash or some young terrorist was killed.

I thought maybe I was the only one who was sitting there, thinking.. karma.

No Springy, you are not the only one who thinks karma when a criminal or a terrorist is killed.

The only time I feel sorrow is when an innocent person is killed while minding their own business.
