South African Conservationist Killed By White Lions by RandomAfrican1(op): 2:20pm On Aug 27, 2020

A well-known South African conservationist has died after he was mauled by two white lions as he was taking them for a walk.

The wife of West Mathewson, who followed in a car, tried to distract the lions but it was too late.
He ran a popular safari lodge, Lion Tree Top Lodge, in Limpopo province.

The lionesses have since been moved to another game lodge and are expected to be released into the wild at a later stage.

A lioness became aggressive towards the other and then turned her attention to the conservationist affectionately known as "Uncle West", reports the BBC's Nomsa Maseko from Johannesburg.

His relatives have said that Wednesday's attack could have been the result of very rough play.
The lionesses were tranquillised following the attack and have been taken to an endangered species centre.

Mr Mathewson is said to have rescued the lions from "canned hunting" - when animals are hunted in an enclosed area, or they are bred to be hunted - and they were kept in an enclosure at his lodge.
The lionesses reportedly killed a man working on a neighbouring property after they broke out of the enclosure in 2017.

I rushed into this thread thinking pocohantas ' Swiss crush has been eaten.

A heart felt condolences to the deceased and in advance to those who share in his madness.

The gods are responsible for this death, cos whom the gods want to kill, they curse with madness. What better way can madness be made manifest than rearing lions, hyenas and other dangerous animals.

Condolences!

Even after He has Trained, Fed and Groomed the the Lions, they still Dealt with Him..

Seeing this, What Comes to my Mind is the Similarity between this Event and what Devil does. Some serve the devil, Sacrifice to him , do his biddings thinking they are Safe!

No Matter How Friendly or Close you are to the Devil ! No Matter How you Serve him, he will make a Meance of you, Destroy you , Deal with you and Laugh at you in Hell!

That guy is a dangerous , Heartless and Wise guy! He Has being thrown down to Earth over 6000 yrs ago..

He Knows the Bible so much!

He knows how Heaven is.
He was Formerly There!
He knows He can't go there again!
That's why he is out to DECIEVE and Confuse Man,who is the Image of God.

He Knows His Time is so Short!

Do not Let Him ! He has no Mercy!
Flee From Anything that Has to Do with Him..

Throughout the History of Humanity, The Only Person that Lions Have Fully Respected is Daniel!

It took God Almighty to Lock their Mouths!

There are Certain things we need to be Extremely Careful about..

Sin has Made Man to Lose The Dominion we Had over these Creatures..

It is at the Millienium Reign we will Enjoy that Full Dominion that Adam and Eve Lost

Condolences to His Family!

Re: South African Conservationist Killed By White Lions by Rebuke:
Oh no! Human, we keep doing things at our own risk.

Lions are wild animals, I love them so much. In fact, I've always thought of having one as a pet, maybe just a fantasy.

There are hundreds of animals, beautiful ones that can be kept as pets please, get yhurself one and let these wild things be.

Have yhu ever seen animals like: antelopes, dear, donkeys, ducks, Arabian camels, guinea pigs, horses, dolphins, etc?

They're cute enough for pet. Keep as many as yhu want and forget about lions, snakes and other dangerous animals that can change their mind in second and make yhu their food from being their owner.


See beautiful animals yhu can have around and sleep with yhur two eyes.

I love wild animals too especially, lions and anything cat (tiger etc).�

I will go to the zoo any time I feel like seeing them physically or watch documentaries on them. Thank yhu.

Animal will always be animal.


Just don't trust your efforts to make nature different from its nature.


Animal remain animal and their nature remain natural... Tread with care, you may loose your respect thinking you have change nature.
