Rising human-wildlife conflict claims 10 lions in Kenya, including one of the oldest.

One of Kenya's oldest lions, a 19-year-old male named Loonkiito, was killed by herders protecting their livestock, bringing the number of big cats killed in the country to 10 last week alone. Loonkiito wandered out of the Amboseli National Park into a village in search of food. Conservation group Lion Guardians described Loonkiito as "a symbol of resilience and coexistence." The spate of lion killings near a major nature reserve popular with visitors has alarmed conservationists and government officials in Kenya, where tourism accounts for more than 6 percent of the country's GDP.
