Twitter goes crazy after four lions escape
Yes, it's happened again! Four lions are on the loose in Mpumalanga.
Four male lions escaped from the Kruger National Park on Sunday evening, SanParks confirm in a statement.
This is the second lion escape at the game reserve since May.
And of course Twitter never forgets!
South Africans have shared memes, jokes and serious concern since the news broke on Jacaranda FM News.

Baba has instructed KNP people to release with them hoping that they'll eat CR's sympathizers. They might end up eating NDZ sympathizers.??????

The lions were last spotted in Matsulu village just outside the park.
Before that they had been spotted in Boulders in the Mara valley, south of the N4.
What would you do if you spotted the lions?
