A big cat poacher has been killed and eaten by the pride of lions he was hunting at a private game reserve in South Africa.

The hunter was heard screaming for help as he was attacked at the Ingwelala Private Nature Reserve in Hoedspruit outside Phalaborwa.

But the lions quickly killed their victim and devoured most of his body before being chased off, leaving his head untouched.

Cats like to eat brains. My Jake eats the heads off the rabbits he kills and leaves the bodies in a neat row on the patio.

However, a human skull is pretty hard to crack, even for a large predator like a lion. It would probably take a hyena to get through to the nutrients.

I read this and wonder...
Could he have been saved if he had a buddy with a laser pointer being the designated distraction?

Just like a Peiking Duck.

I’m disappointed in the Daily Mail. I expected they’d have a photo of the head... they print photos of pretty much anything.

Two sets of footprints have been found running away and obviously the dead and eaten man.’

Yep, the other two only had to outrun the third guy...not the lions.

Big cat poacher? Is that supposed to make a hunter sound bad?

The ravens in my neighborhood have that problem figured out with walnuts. They fly over and drop them on the pavement cracking them wide open. If only kitties could fly.

Well, I think he was poaching, so I would guess attaching that description is meant to make him sound bad.

Maybe if he had swallowed his pride, he wouldn’t have been swallowed by the pride.

Yup. You don’t have to be faster than the lion. You just have to be faster than your buddy. If you’re not, a shot to the knee will slow him up. ;-)

Go cats! Job 4:8 - Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.
