From the BBC:
A well-known South African conservationist has died after he was mauled by two white lions as he was taking them for a walk. The wife of West Mathewson, who followed in a car, tried to distract the lions but it was too late.
The lionesses have since been moved to another game lodge and are expected to be released into the wild at a later stage.
Also from the BBC:
A polar bear has killed a man in Norway's Arctic Spitsbergen island, local officials say. The attack occurred at a campsite near Longyearbyen, the main town of the island in the Svalbard archipelago.
The bear was then shot and found dead at the local airport.
The polar bear is shot and the lionesses are released into the wild? Seems a bit inconsistent.
