Argentina Zoo Lets Tourist Play With Dangerous Animals
For $7, Lujan Zoo, in Argentina, will let you play with lions and tigers and bears! Oh my! Tourists who have never watched a lion, bear, or tiger catch and kill prey on TV can ride, wrestle and pet them. Animal protection charity The Born Free Foundation has condemned the zoo and issued a statement to urge tourists not to visit the zoo. CEO Will Travers said, "Based on what I have seen displayed on the Lujan Zoo website, I am fearful that a terrible accident is going to happen."
Perhaps that girl shares lineage with this woman?
Though really, if the lion was fed recently (and hence not hungry), the danger might not be all that great to the idiot who just paid for a ride.
That, of course, says nothing of the blatant disregard for animal welfare.
Damn_registrars has no butt-hole. Damn_registrars has no use for a butt-hole.
What's with the camel and elephant pictures? Humans have been using them as riding beasts and beasts of burden for millennia; that's not really the same as riding a tiger (or lion).
What a terrible waste. I don't think the lion is going to care (or taste) how great those legs looked, the stupid animal will gnaw away at her thighs like it would at the butt of a rhinoceros or antelope, not knowing the difference. BTW animal lovers. One human life: PRICELESS. African Lion starts at USD 10,000. I'm more concerned with the welfare of the people exposed to what is clearly an incredible danger (ask Siegfried and Roy) .
