In 1898 two man-eating lions terrorized a railway camp in British East Africa

Tuesday March 5, 2019. 01:46 PM , from BoingBoing
In 1898, two lions descended on a company of railway workers in British East Africa. For nine months they terrorized the camp, carrying off a new victim every few days, as engineer John Patterson struggled to stop them. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll track the 'man-eaters of Tsavo' and learn what modern science has discovered about their motivations.
We'll also consider more uses for two cars and puzzle over some prolific penguins.
