Luckily, tour guides were nearby and they tackled the 400lb animal, wrestling it away from her and saving her from more serious injury or death. These are the tour guides I'd want. The rest of these people are idiots.
Two more pics at link.

I’ve never heard that lions are nearsighted! Go figure. ;-)

I saw a video on YouTube of these guys in Pakistan petting a grown male lion. At first he did nothing, but then it turned around suddenly and bit one of the guys on the arm. You don’t play with wild animals, people. And when they attack you they’re not “playing,” they think you’re food or they’re annoyed.

What's wrong with this picture?

So, she’s educated enough to be a teacher, but not smart enough to understand why animals are considered wild.

When for Chrissakes will people realize that cats, any cats, see only two things: food, and toys.
Neither of which you want to be if the cat outweighs you.

If the lion had really been serious, two guides probably wouldn’t have been able to save her.

She was left needing 13 stitches in bite wounds - but it is thought the lion may simply have mistaken her for a playmate, because of her mane-like long blonde hair.
If she only needed 13 stitches, it is likely the lion was only playing...

This ditzy bimbo obviously forgot that lions attack - because it’s their nature. They’re not large kitties; well, actually, they are. If your kitty were big enough to eat you for breakfast, it probably would.
