#LionEscape: four more lions escape Kruger National Park

“We are not completely sure about the whereabouts of the lions,” explains SANParks’ spokesperson William Mabasa “and as soon as we have concrete information we will share this”.

Soon after the news broke around 1pm SAST, the hashtag #LionsEscape began trending on Twitter. This was also propelled by SANParks’ tweets alerting residents of the roaming cats.
