During the search of the area, park security rangers discovered the remains of the body. According to reports, indications found at the scene suggested that a pride of lions had devoured the remains leaving only a human skull and a pair of pants. The park manager, Glenn Phillips, told the local newspaper he was sorry about the death, but warned that illegal poaching comes with risks.
"Entering Kruger National Park illegally and on foot is not wise, it holds many dangers and this incident is evidence of that,” park manager Glenn Phillips told the Letaba Herald. “It is very sad to see the daughters of the deceased mourning the loss of their father, and worse still, only being able to recover very little of his remains.”
The four arrested individuals are in custody and will appear in court soon.
