http://www.news24.com/SouthAfr...derly-woman-20130119 Nyala kills elderly woman 2013-01-19 16:05 Johannesburg - An elderly woman bled to death when a nyala bull pierced her leg with its horn just outside Bela-Bela, Limpopo, according to a report on Saturday. Hettie Gerber, 79, died minutes after the nyala pierced an artery in her right upper leg on Friday, Beeld reported. She was busy feeding the nyala at the time. Gerber had lived on a small holding in Buyskop, about 10km outside Bela-Bela for the past five years. Every morning she would walk from her house to an enclosed camp where she fed rabbits, chickens and birds. Gerber's daughter-in-law Christa Graham told the newspaper that the nyala bull was not tame and lived in the hill near the house. It would sometimes come down to the enclosed camp and Gerber would feed it. Workers found Gerber at about 07:30. Paramedics were called but Gerber died before they arrived. - SAPA Kathi kathi@wildtravel.net 708-425-3552 "The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page." | ||

what part of wild animal do people not comprehend? i grieve for the family's loss but never assume a wild animal is tame just because it shows up for food. Vote Trump- Putin’s best friend… To quote a former AND CURRENT Trumpiteer - DUMP TRUMP | |||

How sad. A few years ago , a breeding Deer also killed the person that was feeding him for 1 year. We all love these animals but above all we need to respect their nature. | |||

Wasn't the artist Simon Coombs killed a few years ago by a buff that he considered tame? | |||

i don't think so. he WAS killed by a buffalo will hiking on his farm in Kenya. i met him about 5 years before his death at an exhibition of his work in San Diego. he was very pro hunting but he freely admitted that because of the nature of his business he couldn't really make his feelings known. too many bunny huggers spent a fortune for his art work. he very graciously wrote a personal inscription to me and signed the framed prints i brought to the show as well as the piece i bought there.
