Lion kills Zimbabwe woman making love in bush 

A woman was reportedly attacked by a lion while making love to her boyfriend in a deserted area in Zimbabwe.

A lion attacked Sharai Mawera and an unidentified male while they were having sex, mauling the woman to death, a local news outlet reported.

The Telegraph reported that the man managed to escape naked, stopping at a distance to look back and witness his girlfriend being attacked before rushing to the road to seek help, citing a friend of the couple.

“The lion came from behind and roared,” the friend was quoted as saying.

The man notified police who, along with officials from the Zimbabwe Parks & Wildlife Management Authority, accompanied him to the scene where they allegedly found the woman’s remains.

She had been mauled in the neck and stomach, and was covered in blood and bruises, according to the U.K. daily. 

The wild lion population has decreased in Africa over the past decades, but lion attacks take place from time to time. In Tanzania alone, lions have killed 100 people a year, according to the Smithsonian.
