Rumas, our local Ilchokuti lion protector has been having a busy and exciting week in the zone he oversees for KopeLion on the western side of the Crater rim. On Friday he found and rescued 17 cows that had gone missing, managing to return them safely to their owner before they came into contact with lions. In the same few days Rumas also managed to remove three groups of cows that were heading into danger as nearly crossed paths with another group of lions.
