Dead wife bait
Tanzanian police have vowed to act after a villager laced with poison his wifeâs remains to catch a killer lion. Police told the BBC they will wipe out the rogue lions that are terrorising villages in the southern Lindi area. When Selemani Ngongwechile found his wifeâs half-eaten body, he calmly poisoned it, knowing the lion would return for the rest of its "meal". His plan worked, killing the lion, but the police say they will use more orthodox methods. Lindi local police chief Simon Dau told the BBC that "a few" lions remained in the area and warned villagers to stay inside after dark. Well, just what do you do with a dead wife?
