A group of rhino poachers had the scare of their life after their friend was reportedly killed by an elephant in Kruger National Park.
The incident happened after the man entered the park Monday with four others to target rhinos, which ended badly (for the poachers.)
The fellow poachers claimed that they carried their friends body to the roadside after the elephant attacked, so people passing by would discover the body.They fled the scene and reported it the next day. Only, the body was not there when they returned.
Authorities set out on a search mission to recover the body. The sun set that day with no sign of his remains. The next day the search continued and they discovered the remains, which appeared to be eaten by a pack of lions. Only a skull and a pair of pants remained.
Entering any African National Parks illegally is extremely dangerous. There are lions, elephants, hyenas, giraffes, rhinos, cheetahs, and many other dangerous animals who will feel threatened when approached. It should be common sense that these magestical animals are no match for humans, even with a form of protections.
Authorities warn others to stay out of National Parks unless you are on a guided safari. They are not there to protect you when you enter these places illegally.
