Blog Entry #7- Tourist killed by lions while showering

A tourist was killed by lions will he was showering at a popular fishing camp in a remote area of Zimbabwe.Pete Evershed, who was vacationing from the capital Harare, was taking an outdoor shower just before dark Tuesday when up to five lions attacked. After others at the camp heard screams, he was found in the shower with serious neck wounds and later died from loss of blood.But a conservation group said lions are having to compete with humans for food, and that eight villagers were killed in similar attacks earlier this year.

I don't think that national parks here should have outside showers because of what happened to this guy. You also know that any animal can come attack you when you aren't even watching. They should have people supervising and watching animals that come out of no where. The should also have food out at all times for the lions because then it would prevent them from coming out at night and attacking other people that are outside.
