You should definitely see the Val Kilmer and Michael Douglas movie "Ghost and the Darkness", if you haven't yet.

Its a little dramatic, but an excellent portrayal of the maneaters of Tsavo story.

Oh and the two lions are mummified and kept here in Chicago in the Field Museum. It's definitely worth a trip!!

Cheers,
Amit

Mummified?
They looked stuffed to me in my last visit
