Best Answer

Yes.

Cape Town is in Africa, and despite the European feel of the town, there are a number of lion prides that reside in the mountains around the city. Competition among the prides for the best hunting spots is fierce, and is centered around Long street, the main nightclubbing district of the town, where the intoxicated night revellers make easy pray. Although many people remain off the streets at night as a result of the feline threat, it is mostly safe as long as the group of people you are in outnumbers the number of lions in the attacking pride, as lions are quite intelligent and will content the number of humans around before commencing an attack. In general you should be safe in groups of 100 or more, but remember, if you find yourself in the face of a lion, do not run, but instead stand your ground and make as much noise as possible. Should you follow this advice, the worst that could happen is a severe mauling, which sounds bad, but is better than certain death. Good luck and stay sharp when walking in Cape Town at night.
