I thought I was going to get eaten....
Being stalked by a predator has to be one of the most harrowing feelings. Thankfully for me there was an electric fence but I wasn't at ease.
All across the zoo, fences were sparking and shorting with the rain. I took off my white jumper and immediately drew the attention of this lioness.
Her eyes saw straight through me and you could tell she was only after a meal, apparently choosing black and white attire is not the best way to camouflage from a zebra loving hungry mum of three.
She followed me up and down the fence line as I moved around the enclosure and scouted my nearest exists should she attempt jumping. Her antics ended up drawing a crowd and with one last wistful look at my zebra/chickenesque jumper she sauntered off to go check her cubs once more.
The cubs, taking full advantage of mums attention being diverted were playing and practicing
their own prey take downs.
haha only thing missing is a shot of the chicken jumper you were in!
And I left it in France so it will forever remain elusive! Haha thank you for reading :)
They are only cute and lovely from a far but really they scare me as well... ^_^
Indeed! The raw power is beautiful....but from a far please haha
Hahaha! Exactly! Eventhough someone will give this for free to take care of, surely I will say nooooooo.
Great pictures! I enjoyed reading the story. Being so close to them is scary indeed.
Thank you for taking the time to read it :D
