We’re still staying in Marloth and it’s been fun knowing there are lion around... keeps you on slightly higher alert when going for walks
There were apparently 4 on the loose but 2 were found and caught leaving the other 2 still at large

..They dont attack ..they run away if you come across them while walking in the veld ..A lioness with TINY cubs all hiding in a Donga and you decide to walk through then thats a different scenario..But who walks through a well grassed donga anyway

Malalane community warned about possible escaped lion
A lion has been heard and seen around Malalane, and the public has been warned to be on the lookout.
6 hours ago
Personnel from an agricultural support business near Extension 6 in Malalane reported seeing a lion in an open field near the premises on March 31 in the early morning.
“Residents have also contacted me and confirmed that they have heard lions roar from much closer than usual, and from an unusual direction,” said Mel Preddy, chairperson of the Malalane Community Police Forum (CPF).
“MTPA has confirmed the reported presence of a young lion near Obaro in Malalane,” Preddy continued.
The visual description from those who saw the animal, along with the tracks found at the end of Rooibok Street, indicate at least one young male lion.
“MTPA is now ready for a quick response, including tranquilisers and means of transporting it once darted.”
Should you spot the animal, please contact Malalane CPF urgently at 082-777-6076, and immediately also send a Google Maps location to the same number via WhatsApp. You may also contact your security company.
