Lion Attacks this Week have Led to Fatalities: Dianna Hanson died in Fresno California, and at Least 2 People Killed in Northern Zimbabwe

Posted by Animal attack blog on Friday, March 8, 2013
An intern in a Fresno California big-cat sanctuary, was killed earlier this week, by a 550 pound lion.
The name of the deceased, is Dianna Hanson, age 24.
The rumors are she died almost instantly of a broken neck.  She was on a cell phone call with a co-worker which abruptly ended.  The lion was apparently in an adjacent cage which had some formation of the gate with an opening of some extent.

In Zimbabwe, another female was mauled to death.  A body in condition of remains was found of a second person in Zimbabwe after a hunt for the lion blamed.

Both of these incidents are remindful of the film The Ghost and the Darkness, which hit the big screens in 1996.

It is extremely important to remember, that when dealing and interfacing with animals that have predatory skills in their nature, that basic prima facie [on the surface] theories of space, and time, may not be absolute limitations on that animal.

For example, a science book says an animal can leap up to 15 feet when attacking.  DO NOT stand 16 feet away and think you are safe.  Another source says an animal is 500 pounds, and 4 feet at the shoulders, and 3 feet wide; do not assume that if you build a containment that is just under 4 feet high, and a few inches below 3 feet wide, that the animal will not manage to DEFY laws of nature, physics, and the behavior that was caught on video when the animal knew humans were watching.

Not meaning to use the same source twice, reference shark emergence at Florida beaches; story is important.
