African Adventure Stories Volume Two
In nearly all cases, the man-eater is an animal well on in years. He has lost his youthful strength and agility and the capture of wild game for food has become' for him a difficult task. He, therefore, adds man to his diet, because the latter is easier to procure ; and he appears to be well aware that the natives fear him and are comparatively helpless against his attack, for he will, if pressed by hunger, force his way into the native huts at night.
Innumerable cases of man-eating lions have come to my personal notice, and perhaps an account of a my personal recollections with this book, may prove of interest to some.
