The Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) has stepped up surveillance in the Ongata Rongai area where a lion killed a man on Monday and three others – a lioness and two male cubs - were spotted marauding near River Kandisi and Mutondo Ridge estate at the weekend.
“KWS has deployed a 24-hour surveillance team to patrol Rongai’s Tuala area for any stray lion in the environs where the unfortunate incident of a man being mauled by a lion occurred,” the agency said in a statement on Friday even as it downplayed reports that ten lions were on the loose in the area neighbouring the Nairobi National Park.
