Ten lions, including Loonkiito, one of the oldest lions in Kenya, were killed by herders.

Kenya's government is worried after herders killed one of the country's oldest wild lions, and six more lions were speared in a separate village on Saturday. This brings the total number of lions killed last week to 10.
On Thursday night, Loonkiito, a male lion who was 19 years old, left Amboseli national park and entered a village in search of food. Kenya Wildlife Service spokesperson Paul Jinaro described the lion as weak and fragile.
In the Mbirikani area of Kajiado county, six additional lions from the national park were attacked with spears by herders. This occurred after the lions had killed 11 goats.
Last week, herders killed 10 lions in a conflict between humans and wildlife that has caused concern for the government.
On Sunday, Peninah Malonza, the minister of tourism, had a meeting with the residents of Mbirikani area. During the meeting, she advised them not to harm any lions that may be wandering around and to instead contact the wildlife service for assistance.

The government and conservation organizations have established a program to compensate herders whose animals are killed by wild animals.
The herders have become more cautious and defensive due to the loss of their livestock caused by a severe drought, which is considered the most severe in the East Africa region in many years.
Craig Miller from the Big Life Foundation expressed regret over the death of Loonkiito, as he was the most senior lion in Amboseli National Park.
Conservationists state that it is uncommon for wild lions to survive beyond the age of 15.
