I saw this book in the library in the animals section...where I am a lot :). I looked through the book and will get it next time, as I had enough reading already!

However, it is the true story of 2 man-eating tigers. Over 100 years ago, they killed and ate over 100 railway workers in Africa. It is thought the "invading" of the workers on the lion's territory contributed to the killing as well as the workers not burying their dead properly...easy to dig up by lions and eat.

A must read for animal behavior and the continuing encroachment by man on animal lands.

Pros: Man & "Beast"

Cons: None

If you have ever seen the movie called The Ghost and The Darkness. Then you'll want to read about what really happened in Tsavo with these two man eating lions. A must read for lion enthusiasts.

Pros: truthfull account of what really happened

Cons: none that I can think of

Excellent research on the lions that systematically killed over 135 railroad workers in 1898. Better than the movie, this book will make you want to visit Tsavo National Park and look for lions yourself.

Pros: Detailed account of Tsavo Lions

Cons: not for those with weak stomachs
