Don't dress your kid like a zebra if you plan to be around lions.

I feel the lion's frustration.

I bet that lioness has never seen a zebra in its life or had to hunt for its food.

Almost a pit the glass didn't crack  ;D

Aww, I LOVE that!

Many happy memories of my great-grandmother reciting that to us as kids (from memory!) ...though being made to recite the lords-prayer in return wasn't so fun!

I'm gonna print that off and see if mine enjoy it...

Thanks for the smiles!

This made me genuinely laugh out loud!

I keep thinking this video is hilarious, then I get a little bit of parent guilt for laughing at the peril of the kid, then I go back to being a guy and laughing my ass off!

It's amusing how oblivious the kid is.

Nah, I'm sure that plexiglass has been thoroughly tested. And it's not like the kid was upset. The only one who was suffering was the lion.  :D

Think about the poor Lion. Its probable going to need years and years of therapy for its new inferiority complex and its Plexiglas phobia. I shudder to think what this trauma will do to the cat.

I agree. I think the Lion is the victim here :)

If I said that big cat wasn't hungry, I'd be lion!

Cute video! The kid was like, 'ooooooo...' just watching it try to maul him to bits.  :D just totally oblivious, so awesome. I bet the little guy thought the lion was trying to play with him, or something.

One time I actually got inside the Orangutan park at the San Antonio Zoo. I was about eighteen, and a bit tipsy.
