He succumbed to his injuries and died in hospital Monday.

Moses Lekalau, 35,a herdsman, was walking from a neighboring village in Maralal with his livestock when a lion pounced upon him. He managed to fend off the animal and used his bare hands and a spear to kill him following half hour duel.

Moments later a pack of hyenas emerged from a nearby bush and attacked Lekalu, biting off his hands and toes.

He was taken to Kenyatta National Hospital in Nairobi where he died Monday as a result of excessive bleeding.

Herman Wabomba, the spokesperson for the hospital said “It was a brave fight for his life on both occasions”, reports News24.

Lekalau came from a nomadic community in which it is a ritual for boys to kill lions as a sign of entering manhood.

In Kenya wild animals attacking humans is quite common since people live close to game parks and animal migration areas.
