Ep. 55: Lions Part 3: The Man-Eaters of Tsavo

This week we look into one of the more famous stories we have covered, the man-eating lions of Tsavo.  These were two maneless lions that wrecked havoc throughout Kenya in 1898, during the construction of a railroad.  In nine months the lions killed around 135 people.  They were finally killed by Lieutenant Colonel John Henry Patterson who led the construction of a bridge being built.  But Patterson finally managed to kill both lions.  These big males were the definition of man-eater.  We also talk about the film make from this story, "The Ghost and the Darkness."
