Mohawk the Lion Is Fatally Shot by Kenya Wildlife Rangers

|Updated:

A lion was killed on March 30 by Kenyan wildlife rangers, who opened fire after it attacked a man outside capital city Nairobi.

Mohawk, 13, was one of Kenya’s most well-known cats in Nairobi National Park.

The nation has invested large sums of money to protect wildlife—which is why Wednesday’s incident sparked a lot of confusion.

Excitement was there, which triggered the animal to be wild.
