A group of lion hunters in South Africa were apparently stalking the wrong lion:
Authorities reported a group of five men hunting without licences was attacked by the big cat at a private game farm near the Kruger.Matome Mahlale, 24,was killed along with two dogs, who were accompanying the group.
Local police spokesman Colonel Ronel Otto said: "Three men managed to climb into a tree and another managed to escape, but the deceased and two dogs were mauled to death."
A local said: "There won't be many people feeling sorry for him. This is seen as poetic justice for the death of Cecil."
Indeed.
