A suspected rhino poacher has been trampled on by an elephant then eaten by a pride of lions in Kruger National Park, South Africa.

Accomplice poachers told the victim's family that he had been killed by an elephant on Tuesday. Relatives notified the park ranger.

A search party struggled to find the body but eventually found a human skull and a pair of trousers on Thursday.

The managing executive of the park extended his condolences to the family.

"Entering Kruger National Park illegally and on foot is not wise," he said. "It holds many dangers and this incident is evidence of that."

Kruger National Park has an ongoing problem with poaching and there remains a strong demand for rhino horn in Asian countries.

On Saturday, Hong Kong airport authorities seized the biggest haul of rhino horn in five years, valued at $2.1m (£1.6m).

That's what you get for being an ass, good riddance.

Hope he didn't taste bad, wouldn't want to give the lions stomach pains.

I remember that one time lions killed three of the poachers and they could only tell by the three pair of boots found on the scene.

I don't feel sorry for such people, some people try to defend them claiming they do it because they're forced into it because of poverty, lol.. And if they hunt all animals to extinction then what, starve to death? There are so many other ways to get out of poverty or at least not to resort to this. They are as disgusting as these foreign trophy hunters who go to Africa to hunt animals. Both should be punished equally.
