Another suspected Hyena attack on a person has been reported around Makongeni, Thika West in Kiambu County.

This follows a last evening report at Makongeni Police Station by a Kang’oki area resident who found a fresh human skull at his farm in Kandara Investment Scheme.

Police and Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) officers who visited the scene have confirmed the said incident.

“A skull, scattered bones and torn bloodstained clothes were found; hyenas prints were also found at the scene,” the DCI said in a statement.

Detectives have since urged residents to be vigilant as measures to hunt down and eradicate this threat is underway.

“We urge residents in the said areas to continue exercising caution and beware of the dangerous carnivores, whose attacks in their numbers are dreadful and deadly,” the DCI said in a statement.

This incident was reported hours after another man was mauled and killed by a cackle of about 20 hyenas in Witeithie in Juja.

According to detectives, the 29-year-old who is a quarry worker was on his way home from Komu quarry when he was attacked. His counterpart narrowly escaped by the skin of his teeth.
