She wants to call lions for her boyfriend who broke her heart.

You are free to add your own part to the report since you seem to know the Zoo more than people working there. Thank God, the deceased is not from another tribe otherwise another sets of conspiracy theories could have been flying around. May the dead RIP & may the Almighty God console those that he left behind.

It's you who should be shutting up. The commenter said the right thing. Why would you be in a lion’s cage and not expect to be injured or killed? It's a wild animal, not a pet.

We're you there?

So when a lion kills a human, accidentally or deliberately due to the human error or mistake, they should not eliminate the lion?

They should excuse the lion and allow it to live?

Killing such lion is an acceptable practice every where around the world.

All these rubbish story sef.

How did the woman enter the den?
Is there no precaution they normally take to avoid direct confrontation with these dangerous animals knowing that they are dangerous?

It is just like going into a brood of vipers and expect to come out unharmed and fine.
I think that woman wanted to commit suicide and the man was unfortunate to be there.

Also, I thought they usually have sedatives on standby for occasions like this. If the animal confronts a victim inadvertently it should be sedated immediately with a sedation gun.

There is a lot of negligence on the part of the Zoo management and it has cost them lives! This is Nigeria. Terrible.

Your analysis are spot on:

How did a female staff get in direct contact with the 9 year old lion?

Why did the man have to intervene without protective gears?

What is the safety procedures of approaching the lions den for any reason, especially staff?

The Zoo management have a lot of questions to answer and I think this particular zoological garden in Ife Osun state is highly unsafe.

Don’t mind the slowpoke slowpoke, they just read the headline and rush straight to comment section, the gentleman was unfortunately a close relation of mine, he was formally at university of Ibadan as a zoologist before moving OAU 10 years ago and he has been in charge of this particular lion since 9tears ago when the lion was born, wide animal will always be wide animal, rest on Egbon
So sorry about the incident. Take heart, brother.

The lion probably broke out from the rotten metal wire. I went to the same zoo about 10 years ago, if you see the horrible state of wire metal around the lions den, you will be surprise how those working there did not raise alarm and fix it with new wire.

Even we the visitors had to flee the place immediately we saw it that day. I am very sure the same wire will still be there till this moment. Nigeria and Nigerians has fail themselves thinking we are smart by not doing the right thing.

RIP to the dead, he failed in carry out his duty but unfortunately, he paid for it with his life.

[quote author=Amotolongbo post=128565053]This doesn’t add up.
I would rather wait for the School Authority to release the report

Was the lion roaming freely in the zoo garden like ekuke, or how was it attacking people?

I had the opportunity of visiting the zoo about 3times, the lions’ den had high perimeter metal wire (about 20m high) round it.[We're!

Cognitive dissonance everywhere! Let me explain to you so you can spread to all the other "I don't believe" crew that the 2 individuals who were attacked by the lion were zoo staff. They have been entering the enclosure of the lions to feed them and perhaps clean the place. They don't throw meat to them from over the perimeter fencing. They enter and feed. That is standard practice because the lions know them. That is how lions are fed in zoos. Lions are obligate carnivores who can't be trusted. The predatory instinct kicked in and it went for the weakest link - the woman. The man tried to rescue and show authority since all the lions already know him( he practically raised them as cubs). The lion felt challenged and fought back. Case closed.

Lol... You people just saying euthanize up and down... The animal was KILLED, simple.

Euthanize is mercy killing or explained as killing an animal or someone humanely which most times comes with painless death. It is an assist killing.

Thank you.
I don't know why we like to dribble English.
Lion was killed simple and short.

Exactly. The zoo management should answer all the questions raised. Stupid people.
You are running a zoo and you don't have safety gears and equipments in emergencies like that.

I remember I saw a picture of the lifeless body still in the zoo.

They probably rushed him to the hospital after they must have satisfied their phone cameras.

He asked how come the woman came in contact with the lion? It is an unambiguous question. Working in the zoo shouldn't make anyone come in contact with predators like big cats unless when already tranquilised and tied.

Once the Lion had tasted human blood there was no going back!

As it had attacked the woman and probably tasted her blood, every human became a potential prey!

In a saner clime, during the attack on the woman, the Lion would have been darted (with tranquilizers) and eventually euthanized because it had tasted human blood.

The system failed the victims.


How did the lion attacked the woman.......? The story did not add up

“After he was freed from the lion’s grip, they rushed him to the health centre on campus here. He however died before he got there. But the second person that was attacked, a woman, is still on admission receiving treatment presently.”

This story doesn't add up.

Somone that his lifeless body was video on the ground was said to have been rush to the hospital.

Why are Nigerians like.

I steingly belived to attempt to made to rescue the man before giving up the ghost.

You are working with "wild" animals you don't have a pistol ? No one could get the police or gun down the lion? i believe at the time the lion was attacking him many of the staffers were busy filming instead of calling for help. Am still surprised why they haven't released the videos of the attack yet?
