AFRICAN LIONS ON RAMPAGE
Mai Desire killed during sex romp with bf in Zimbabwe, handler in California.


Barely 24 hours after a rampaging lion killed a woman who was having sex with her boyfriend in a bush in Zimbabwe another one in far away California, United States of America has killed another young woman, this time a 26 year old volunteer intern working at a privately owned big cat sanctuary. "The lion was also killed," CalFire spokesman Ryan Michaels told reporters. The incident occurred at about 12:30 p.m. yesterday Wednesday at the Sierra Cat Haven in Dunlap, a small town in Fresno County near King's Canyon. The intern was inside the cat enclosure when the attack occurred. Why the intern was in the animal enclosure or what what prompted the attack in Dunlap is not yet known. The big cat sanctuary was founded in 1999 on 100 acres and is home to a variety of species of big cats, including cheetahs and tigers. It is a good history and an active permit to operate.

Whereas the two incidents have taken place at two distant ends, they both involve the killing of young women. Incidentally, they also both involved African lions. Although the sex of the one involved in the Zimbabwe incident is not know, that of the California is said to be a male lion.
In the Zimbabwe incident that the man and his girlfriend, identified as Sharai Mawera (aka Mai Desire, were having sex in a bushy area in Kariba when the lion attacked. Furtunately, her boyfriend managed to escape naked, having only a condom on sources said. Many motorists ignored the man, MyZimbabwe reported, because he was running all over the road naked. An arm and the remains of a second corpse, believed to be an unidentified man, were found by rangers hunting for the lion. The National Parks and Wildlife Authority of Zimbabwe have sent out out fliers to warned people against walking at night and using footpaths through the bush as shortcuts. Also, volunteers are using loudspeaker to caution townspeople on the dangers of lion attacks on the shores of Lake Kariba, a man-made hydroelectric dam popular for fishing and tourism. Who’s the next victim until the lion on rampage is hunted down? May the souls of the two ladies rest in peace.

  1. studies on animal behaviours and causes of such crisis could be investigated in order to get to the root of it

  2. Anton van Leeuwenhoek of Holland,(1632-1723) started as an apprentice in a dry goods store where magnifying glasses were used to count the threads in cloth. He taught himself new methods for grinding and polishing tiny lenses of great curvature which gave magnifications up to 270 diameters, the finest known at that time. These led to the building of his microscopes and the biological discoveries for which he is famous. He was the first to see and describe bacteria, yeast plants, the teeming life in a drop of water, and the circulation of blood corpuscles in capillaries. During a long life he used his lenses to make pioneer studies on an extraordinary variety of things, both living and non living, and reported his findings in over a hundred letters to the Royal Society of England and the French Academy

    1830 – Joseph Jackson Lister reduces spherical aberration or the "chromatic effect" by showing that several weak lenses used together at certain distances gave good magnification without blurring the image. This was the prototype for the compound microscope.

    1872 – Ernst Abbe, then research director of the Zeiss Optical Works, wrote a mathematical formula called the "Abbe Sine Condition". His formula provided calculations that allowed for the maximum resolution in microscopes possible.

  3. • 1665 – English physicist, Robert Hooke looked at a sliver of cork through a microscope lens and noticed some "pores" or "cells" in it.
    • 1674 – Anton van Leeuwenhoek built a simple microscope with only one lens to examine blood, yeast, insects and many other tiny objects. Leeuwenhoek was the first person to describe bacteria, and he invented new methods for grinding and polishing microscope lenses that allowed for curvatures providing magnifications of up to 270 diameters, the best available lenses at that time.
    • 18th century – Technical innovations improved microscopes, leading to microscopy becoming popular among scientists. Lenses combining two types of glass reduced the "chromatic effect" the disturbing halos resulting from differences in refraction of light.
