That looks like set-up to me. One bite would break you in half.

No wonder they turned on him, he was jabbing them in the face with a stick! He got off lightly I reckon  :o

the lions are nervous and only want to hurt , not kill ..

if they wanted, the man was dead now!! not alive..

Horrendous, but just confirms my view that wild animals should not be used as an entertainment for humans, but should be left alone in their own environment!!

lions are big cats.. and they can become angry..

if they are in the nature they behave accordingly..

but if they grow up with humans they are rarely dangerous (if you dont let them hungry)  ;D

and may be hard to believe they are taught to shed blood by their mother!! and they hardly learn to do this..

Totally agree!! :y :y :y :y :y

They are not play things but beautiful wild animals with the instinct to kill to survive and at least should be either in the wild or a very large 'park', being allowed to freely roam.  NEVER should they be in zoo's, and certainly NEVER be in circus rinks being teased to 'perform'! :( :( :(
