Kenya Lions

This study not only identifies the specific animals the lions preyed on but also provides clues as to why they targeted humans.

Loonkiito, one of Kenya's oldest lions aged 19, was among the lions killed last week. It had ventured out of a protected area in search of food.

Conservation group Lion Guardians eulogised Loonkito as "a symbol of resilience and coexistence."

The video has received over 7 million views on Twitter, with more than 72,000 likes. Many people are leaving interesting and creative remarks in the comments section.

A lion in Kenya was recently found trapped in a wire snare that was cutting off his paw. The Sheldrick Wildlife Trust said that the big cat had stepped into the snare, which was becoming tighter and tighter around his paw as he struggled to escape.

A male lion that strayed into rush hour traffic in the Kenyan capital on Friday injured one man before being captured and taken back to a reserve that lies on the edge of the city, the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) said.

A lion attacked and injured a 63-year-old man Friday after straying out of the Nairobi National Park onto one of the country's major highways during peak morning traffic, a Kenyan wildlife official said.

Two lions were spotted close to a highway in the Kenyan capital today, the second time this month that lions have strayed from a wildlife sanctuary Nairobi's outskirts and entered the city of some 3 million people.

Wildlife rangers in Nairobi on Friday hunted for two lions who escaped from Nairobi's national park and meandered into "highly populated" areas of the Kenyan capital.
