Little boy miraculously survives five days in lion-infested park

An eight-year-old boy, Tinotenda Pudu, has been miraculously found alive after spending five harrowing days in the wild of northern Zimbabwe’s Matusadona Game Park, known for its lions and elephants.

The park, spanning over 1,470 square kilometres (570 square miles), is teeming with wildlife, including zebras, elephants, hippos, antelope, and an estimated 40 lions, once among Africa’s densest populations.

For five days, Tinotenda endured the wilderness, “sleeping on a rocky perch, amidst roaring lions, passing elephants, eating wild fruits.”
