Advice to those visiting Africa.

If you go walking in the bush you may startle a lion and it might lash out. To avoid this, sew small brass bells onto your clothing to warn of your approach. As a further precaution carry a can of pepper spray.

It is also recommended that you can distinguish lion cub dung, as the cubs cannot run away and the lioness may react aggressively. Cub dung comes in small balls, often containing berries and smelling faintly fruity. Adult dung is the large balls containing small brass bells and smelling strongly of pepper.
