One of the farm owners in the area, Viswell Ngulube has told Breeze News that a lion on Saturday night killed one of his cattle after it entered his kraal.
He says that the lion was later spotted in one of the fields eating the killed domestic animal.
Mr. Ngulube says that this is not the first time that lions have been terrorizing people in the area, stating that in June this year, a similar thing happened.
