How stupid can a man be?

And the nitwit will probably want to sue the zoo! :rolleyes2:
 
That guy got off lucky. There is a video on Youtube that I won't link to, you have to agree twice to view the material. A guy decides to get out of his car to film a group of lions. I'm guessing this is in Africa. He is filming them from less than 20 feet when a lion tackles him from behind. He is eaten alive while his wife and children watch.
 
Messing around with big cats, especially in their own environment, is lunacy of the highest order.

Even a housecat can be dangerous enough if provoked. Vicious li'l critters!
 
Our vet was clawed badly to the point he had to go to the hospital a couple of years ago, the cat was put down! His arm looked like it went through a shredder. Bad
 
I've seen Richardson before, but never with hyenas. I know he'd raised the big cats from the time they were born, they likely consider him to be their mum. He's one of them as far as they're concerned. Cats seem to be like that no matter whether housecat or lion. But there's a "window of opportunity" there.

Hyenas are a whole different thing, AFAIC.
 
I just got back from YouTube and looking up the video Greg referenced. The man's stupidity was incredible and the result was pretty graphic. The worst part is seeing his wife and children in the car.

WOW! I'd forgotten about that one entirely!
 
Pill Pockets are the best thing since sliced bread.

Our Toy Poodle had to take pills every day. Before pill pockets it was always a fight after pill pockets she would be waiting for her treat.
