Two cases of man-eating lions feeding on large numbers of humans (1898, 1991) are discussed. The forensic dental evidence from the lions' remains and eyewitness reports indicate all three lions had serious dental/oral pathology, which may have contributed to their selection of human food over more challenging natural animal prey.
本文讨论了两起食人狮捕食大量人类的案例(1898年、1991年)。来自狮子遗骸的法医牙科证据和目击者报告表明,这三只狮子都有严重的牙齿/口腔病理学问题,这可能导致它们选择人类作为食物,而非更具挑战性的天然动物猎物。
