Did you ever see that movie “The Ghost And The Darkness” with Val Kilmer and Michael Douglas? You’d be surprised how brutal lions 🦁 can really be.

Or as gentle as little lambs........... Just ask Daniel.
Haven’t seen that one (not a Michael Douglas fan), but I watch live safari drives which include hunting, killing and feeding by lions and other predators. Lions will tolerate young cubs up to a certain age at the table but will get into serious fights with any of their fellow pride members whom they think will take too much away from them. After they finish, then they have to bond all over again.
I don’t usually watch the capture/kill part and only some of the dining. I also avoid any Wild or Painted Dog feedings. They don’t bother to kill their prey first, they just catch and eat.
Apparently the victim forgot to lock the cage door. What a horrendous error to make for an experienced keeper.
Every safari guide I’ve watched said they’d rather find themselves in front of a lion (during the day only) then a Cape Buffalo while on bush walk.
