Quinn Swales was mauled to death by a lion while showing tourists around the park yesterday. Swales was charged by a male lion and succumbed to his injuries; but not before saving every other person in his safari group.

“It is with deep regret and great sadness that we are able to confirm the death of Quinn Swales, a Camp Hwange professional guide, who was fatally mauled by a male lion whilst out on a walking safari this morning. We can confirm that Quinn did everything he could to successfully protect his guests and ensure their safety, and that no guests were injured in the incident,” the Hwange camp announced on its Facebook page.

The attack comes while Cecil the lion’s blood, at the hands of American dentist Walter Palmer, is still drying and the outrage over his illegal slaughter still runs hot.
