A lion has reportedly killed a woman having sex outdoors near the town of Kariba in Zimbabwe.
It was the second lion attack in the town in recent days and residents are said to be living in fear of the animals.
The UK's Metro, Sun and Daily Mail newspapers said the woman, identified as Sharai Mawera, had been making love outdoors with her boyfriend. He managed to escape and tried to raise the alarm.
Members of an apostolic sect who worshiped near the area where the tragedy happened fled after claiming to have seen seven lions in the area.
It said that as well as the woman, an arm and a few remnants of a second corpse were found by rangers hunting for the lions.
While lion attacks were not common close to urban settlements, elephants have roamed into Kariba's suburbs, causing several deaths in recent years.
Victims were often heading home from late night taverns and bars.
Lions that have eaten human prey are thought to continue hunting people until they are killed.
