Lions' den

Caption

In the 1990s, a team from the Kenya Wildlife Service and the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago found a cave that the “man-eater” lions had used in Tsavo, Kenya. The team included Thomas Gnoske, front row, far left; Julian Kerbis Peterhans, front row, far right; and Samuel Andanje, back row, second from left, a KWS research biologist who, with Gnoske and Kerbis Peterhans, coordinated the search for the cave.
