# Two lions were euthanised in Huntington near Bushbuckridge in Mpumalanga after a week-long joint operation by Mpumalanga Tourism, SANParks, and partners. The animals had attacked livestock. SANParks’ spokesperson, Simphiwe Shingube, says dense bush and ongoing threats to cattle led to the difficult decision. A third lion was captured on Thursday. Shingube urged residents to report sightings of a fourth lion and avoid personal intervention.
