Six large animals have died at South Africa’s largest national park after a devastating lightning storm toppled a power cable.

Park rangers discovered the two lions, two hyenas, a giraffe and a rhino who were all killed when the power line came down in Kruger National Park, which follow the deaths of four other large animals in the park in the last month from poachers.

The deaths of these animals are a significant loss to the park, with estimated rhino and lion numbers both falling below 2,000.
