Kruger National Park rangers received a call last week from the family of the suspected poacher, the park said in a statement issued Friday. According to the family, accomplices of their relative said he was killed by an elephant on Tuesday, while they were in the park to poach rhinos. The elephant attacked "suddenly," police Brig. Leonard Hlathi told South African news website TimesLive. Hlathi said the man's accomplices claimed to have carried his body to a road before leaving the park. Rangers began search efforts to find the man's remains and bring the family closure but could not locate a body. "Indications found at the scene suggested that a pride of lions had devoured the remains leaving only a human skull and a pair of pants," the statement reads. The remains were found in the Crocodile Bridge section of the park. Observers were quick to point out the apparent irony. "It's the Circle of life," one commentator quipped on Twitter. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
