SANParks says roaming pride of lions did not escape from Kruger

Cape Town - South African National Parks said on Friday that the widely reported pride of lions seen recently in the mining area outside Phalaborwa, were not a pride from the Kruger National Park or the adjacent private nature reserves.

SANParks said that it would therefore be unwise to relocate a lion pride in the territory of an existing pride. It should also be noted that the disease status of animals is also a consideration when looking at possible release areas.

Kruger National Park staffer's son, 2, mauled to death by leopard | IOL NewsA two-year-old toddler has been fatally mauled by a leopard at staff living quarters in the Kruger National Park (KNP). The staff should be kept safe from incidents such as this. Are their quarters not closed off or does working for KNP mean that you live amongst the animals. A child has died and an animal killed for being what they are, predators... How did this leopard venture so close to the staff quarters?
