Ep. 55: Lions Part 3: The Man-Eaters of Tsavo
Saturday Aug 10, 2019
Saturday Aug 10, 2019
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."

Saturday Aug 03, 2019
Saturday Aug 03, 2019
This week have more about lions. We take a look into lion conservation and tell the story of Cecil the lion who was killed by a trophy hunter. Trophy hunting is a complicated issue and this story sparked lots of debate on the ethics of it. Then we share lots of information about lions in pop culture. Lions are one of the most iconic animals in the world and are deeply rooted to many cultures. Then we talk about some famous films about lions. We talk about the new Lion King movie and give our review on it. We also talk about the most dangerous film ever made, a movie called "Roar." With a movie set having 150 big cats and over 70 people getting injured we see how dangerous it was. Then we end on telling about some of the more famous man-eating lions throughout history, including a pride of lions responsible for killing over 1,500 people.

This week we take a look at a fearsome predator known as the bull shark. We go over all about them, from their size to their diet to their attack stats. Probably the coolest and scariest thing about them is that the can live in both saltwater and freshwater. There are found in coastal areas all over the world as well as river systems and even lakes. Then we tell the story that began the fear and hysteria over sharks that still goes on today. This story was the inspiration of Jaws. It is the 1916 Jersey Shore Shark Attacks. 12 days of panic as there were five victims with four of them dying.
