JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - Nature lovers worried growing hordes of tourists might spoil a safari to Africa can now watch the continent's wildlife live and in the raw on the Internet.



Canada's Infotec Business Systems Inc, which uses webcams to broadcast live footage of wild animals on the web, says its 'Africam' site has captured the first live kill of an animal in the wild streamed through the Internet.



The site showed six lions hunt and kill a buffalo live on Christmas Day at the Nkorho Pan on the edge of South Africa's vast Kruger Park, Infotec BSI said on Tuesday.

From the forums it appears the actual kill was behind the camera, but everyone could hear it. Then the lions drug the carcass out to where it could be viewed and everyone watched them chow down. Yummay! [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] I myself don't mind if I miss any grisly demises on the ol Africam, especially on Christmas Day LOL.

Yes. I'm sure all of us would've been sitting in front of it watching on Christmas day had it been stickied.

No way. We often watch it at work on night shift. I would just like to see a lion period.

Why? I don't think a lion having her period is anything special.
