I'm sure some time in the future we'll see a story where this lion has killed or ripped off a limb of this man.

Call me cynical but every animal (like humans) a have days were they are pissed off and lash out.


Yes, but dont they normally give signs? For example when my house cat doesnt want to be pet she hits her tail on the ground quickly, before she'll even put her ears back. I know when not to touch based on her tail.
