The victim to this incident has been named as 29 year old Katherine Chappell. She was a TV editor who worked on a number of big hit tv productions such as the current "Game of Thrones", "Captain America" etc. The police have taken her camera in to process as it appears according to witnesses to the incident she had her window fully down and was taking pics of this lioness as it started to walk towards her. It apparently climbed right into the car. The tour guide with her in the car tried to ward off the lioness and was himself seriously injured. He is in hospital in ICU and has on top of this had a heart attack. Well that does not surprise me at all.

Katherine Chappel according to reports was a keen nature conservationist and had raised money for animals here in SA. So she obviously was not an ignoramus to the wild side of nature.
