Zimbabweans eat killer lion
BBC



A group of Zimbabwean villagers has exacted sweet revenge on a lion which had wreaked havoc on their livestock by eating it, local media reports.

"It ate our animals so it is only fair we eat it, too," one man said after enjoying the barbecued meat.

Others said they wanted to eat the lion to inherit its bravery and strength.

Game wardens killed the lion after a six-month rampage against goats and cattle in Muzarabani, 200 km (125 miles) north of the capital, Harare.

6. I've eaten lion before. Restaurant around here serves it once a
year (December). Comes legally from North Africa.

Ate it on a dare, of course. I still feel bad about it.
