A woman has been mauled to death by a lioness at a private game reserve north of South Africa’s administrative capital, Pretoria, a local emergency service reports.<\/p>\n
Netcare 911 spokesman Nick Dollman said the service had responded to a call of a lioness attack in Hammanskraal town.<\/p>\n
“Tragically, the victim had sustained severe injuries and she died at the scene,” Mr Dollman said.<\/p>\n
It is unclear what led to the attack.<\/p>\n
Mr Dollman said that bystanders had tried to revive the victim, identified as a 22-year-old woman, by initiating CPR [cardiopulmonary resuscitation].<\/p>\n
He did not identity the private lodge where the attack happened but said it was just outside of the Dinokeng Nature Reserve in Hammanskraal town.<\/p>\n
The reserve describes itself as the first free-roaming residential game reserve for the “big five” African animals next to an urbanised area.<\/p>\n
