South African Park Rangers Capture Four Of Five Escaped Lions
South African rangers and police on Tuesday captured four of five lions that had escaped from the country’s flagship Kruger National Park, the national wildlife parks’ authority said.
The big cats had been sighted on Monday at a road crossing in the town of Komatipoort near the Mozambican border.
Three of them were eventually spotted outside the park, SAN Parks spokesman Reynold Thakhuli said.
“A helicopter is going up now. The lions will be darted and brought back to the park,” he added.
Thakhuli subsequently confirmed that four of the lions had been captured, and that rangers were still looking for the fifth one.
It was not known how they had escaped from Kruger Park, a wildlife area the size of Israel, most of which is fenced.
