Lions unleash terror in Nkange

Mmegi is informed that the Wildlife department has kick-started a clean-up operation, which includes veterinary, wildlife officers and a professional hunter from Charles Hill in Kgalagadi in order to capture the lions, which could number over 10.

Nkange village chief, Kgosi Toteng Nzonga said the lions descended on the area mid-July and began preying on domestic animals, triggering fear among local villagers. Since that time, he said, the five lions, which comprise a male lion, a lioness and three cubs, had already killed 25 cows, 17 goats and six donkeys.
