I am reading a book with a similar title by Capstick and couldn't resist starting this thread.

Which animal do folks feel is the most dangerous risk in the tall grass?

The insight on lion behavior and maneaters was an eye opener.Analysis from other sources revealed 85% of the maneating lions were in good to excellent health!! Official records suggest man is just a tasty morsel worth stalking and seizing, primarily at night right out of his tent/dwelling! Once focused on a victim the lion pursues till the unfortunate is killed and consumed-BELCH- although some lions do appear to kill multiple victims for the thrill of klling.

LION-the ultimate african preditor of man??

Maybe there needs to be a new method developed for camping in lion country--
by Tree houses!!

DEATH IN THE TALL GRASS-a GREAT BOOK and a good read!!
