It sucks to be a Kenyan herdsman

See here about the poor bugger who was wandering through a "safari area" and was attacked by a lion.

Then he was attacked by hyenas.

Interesting story, but sounds sort of crooked to me,

"As a Samburu, he came from a community where it is traditional for boys to kill a lion as a rite of passage on entering manhood. "

Maybe they should raise the requirement to a Hyena.

If he really killed a lion, he deserves more respect. Was he hurt and exhausted when the hyenas attacked him?

Codswallop if you ask me.

These "fearless tribesmen" no longer have the balls of their past generation!

The Maasai have evolved into city slickers and the Samburu aren't any different.

The few wild tribes that are left are slowly being "converted" by Western ideology - "Vanishing Africa" speaks volumes.

You are bloody right there! Sperm production is at an all time high. Just witness the population growth.

I think some of the comments in this article are misleading but am doing some checking.
