Lions that had strayed from the Kruger National Park on Friday, were captured on Monday and returned to the park.
Ike Phaahla, SANParks’ spokesperson, said they had received reports from Mkhuhlu community members regarding roaming lions and a search was launched. “After three days the lions were found in thick bush near the Sabi Sand Reserve. They were darted and safely returned to the Kruger on Monday November 14,” he said.
