About this listen

In this episode, we travel back to 1898, when two lions halted construction of the Uganda Railway, terrorizing workers in colonial East Africa. Today, their preserved bodies stand at the Field Museum in Chicago, transformed from feared predators into museum artifacts. Join me as we explore the bloody legend, the colonial history behind the railway, and what it means to come face-to-face with these lions more than a century later.
