Karma is alive and well...
A poacher who was intending to hunt rhinos at Kruger National Park in South Africa was trampled by an elephant and then eaten by a pride of lions. The poacher reportedly lost his life after being trampled by the elephant, but the lions returned later to feed on his remains. This is not to be confused with the poacher that we reported on several weeks ago who lost his life at the Sibuya Game Reserve in South Africa in a similar fashion. This is a new and recent incident that was just reported this week.
The poacher who was killed was reportedly a part of a hunting group of five. After watching their friend get trampled by an elephant, the four other poachers fled in terror and were eventually picked up by police. The poachers were reportedly so scared that they called the police on themselves. The rangers then managed to find what was left of the poacher on Thursday but it appeared he had been eaten by a lion pride. All that was left to bring back into camp was the poacher’s bloodied head and a pair of his pants. Wildlife poachers are posing an increasing threat to endangered species, as hunters are moving into wildlife preserves in search of high-value animals. To fight back against the poachers, Kenya has taken the measure of implementing the death penalty for anyone caught hunting endangered animals in these areas. https://www.anonews.co/poacher-tramp...0q5UOyj2T-IOq8 |
