Jos Wildlife Park Lion Killed {picture} by steffans(m): 7:13pm On Dec 02, 2015
The lion which escaped from the premises of the Jos Wildlife Park, on Wednesday morning, has been killed.

Pandemonium rocked the Tudun Wada area of Jos North, as the lion escaped at about 8am while it was being fed.

Hours after the animal escaped from the wildlife park, it was killed by officials of the Operation Safe Haven.

Director of Press Affairs of Governor Simon Lalong, Emmanuel Nanle, confirmed the development, saying the lion was killed before it could harm anyone.

Nanle said, “Security men haunted the lion and killed it as soon as they were contacted. So people should go about their normal duties as there is no threat to their lives from the animal.”

Meanwhile, operators of the park disclosed that the lion was shot after it attempted to attack its rescuers.Hours after the animal escaped from the wildlife park, it was killed by officials of the Operation Safe Haven.

So they didn't have tranquilizer darts? Rubbish. Such a majestic creature wasted because they didn't have a plan. Where did you get this photo, though?
Update: details added to first post.

So they couldn't even shoot the lion with an immobiliser of some sort?


Imagine an instance where all the lions escape from their zoo one after the other and we keep on killing them,what then happens? Would there be a surviving lion left in Nigeria?
SHM for lack of tranquliser to tame an escaping animal!

Majestic creature? Until it eat you or your little ones. Just like that majestic dog somewhere in Lagos that chew a little boy skull for lunch. The OP didn't post the entire details, we don't know if the lion was hostile to the community. You don't show love to animals that want to eat you. And before you start with the "Africa are local" stuff, This is Russia shooting dead a bear that wandered into a shopping mall. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-34535577
And yea it wasn't with tranquilizer, They should have used the tranquilizer and wait for the bear to have a nice sleep while chewing on a policeman head like lollipop.

Oga Seun... Do we have animal control in 9ja?
When it escaped.. The tourism board called in soldiers and police.. I guess the plan was to bring it down..

An animal in confinement since 1972.. Can be of great danger...

Maybe it's the town people that killed it. The zoo worker would capture it instead.

I think the lion might have been killed by mai namas that wanted to test how sharp the edge of their knife is. grin grin grin

Majestic means:- Of royalty or splendor. And that is Lion, the King of the jungle.

It is sometimes good to read and understand, some statements makes you look plain dumb(Sorry if the word is vulgar, I can't seem to find another word to describe you).

The most annoying part of your post is that you said of it eats him or his little ones. I hereby daresay that you don't know how to communicate, and you need to work on it.

Ciao!

As in, dont they have tranquilizer darts instead of killing it? Thats how JTF are firing life bullets at protesters. I know the lion will be eaten. Welcome to Nigeria, where any animal killed must be roasted and eaten. I HEREBY CROWN THE PERSON THAT TOOK THE SHOT THAT KILLED THE LION, "OGBUAGU I OF JOS"
