One regular run of 170 miles from Fort Rosebery in the wilds to the railway at Ndola is regarded as so hazardous that a party of six native postmen on bicycles always travel in company. On a recent trip so many lions barred the narrow track that postmen decided to form a rampart of bicycles. “They turned their machines over, spun the wheels, held sticks against the spokes, and hoped the unusual clatter would frighten the lions away. Unfortunately, the lions appeared to be charmed by the sound and drew nearer. “The postmen then bolted for the trees and remained in the branches for six hours until the lions had departed.”
