Craziest Night in Africa

Every night as a community at Bosco Boys, we do prayers outside. The last two weeks or so we have had rain and it usually starts during the time we're outside. Last night the rain did not start but the sky was dark and was glowing to the thunder storms in the distance. All of a sudden we heard LOUD rumbling but it was different from the thunder we usually hear. The noise kept getting louder and you could tell the children started to wonder what it was but also get a bit worried from it.

We then heard loud shrieks from the other part of the school. Some of the children then started running over towards the noises but the priests told them to come back. Once prayers was over we all went over to the back wall of the school. There was a huge divot in the cement walling and everyone was so curious how this wall could be damaged. We all took a closer look then saw half of a water buffalo's leg lying in the middle of the school's field.

We then all realized that a herd of a buffalo were running outside of our school grounds. They must have hit the wall then kept running on. The craziest thing is the buffalo leg lying in the field. Well this morning the local neighbors contacted Fr. Sebastian (director of our school). Fr. Sebastian later told us that they saw a lion in their backyard last night chasing the buffalo. Which means a lion came into our school grounds last night and killed a buffalo!!!

Oh yeah, april fools.
