Most people that are attacked often are usually the caretakers of these captivated animals (Zookeeper Attack).There are often reports of lion attacks in Tanzania and other African countries, especially during times of drought when food is scarce. Conservationists have also long warned that agriculture and human settlements are eroding the animal's natural habitat. This is setting the stage for confrontation between lions and humans.
