Residents near Kenya's nature reserves say that lions and other animals kill livestock and domestic animals - a growing problem as humans and wildlife continue to compete for land and resources.
Six lions have been killed by herders in Kenya, just days after one of the country's oldest lions was also fatally targeted.
Speaking about Saturday's deaths, Richard Bonham, executive chairman of Big Life Foundation Kenya, said the organisation's rangers had tried to disperse a group of nine lions after they attacked the goats and dog at a homestead, but six had refused to leave.
