Hello, Lion. Hi, food





On the territory of the safari park with an area of ​​two hectares inhabited by six lions.





The idea of ​​creating a zoo was that people can see these majestic animals in their natural habitat.



Visitors move through the park in the truck, but rather in a cage in the back of a truck, for obvious reasons.



During these excursions brave visitors can literally touch the lion - the king of beasts.



Guides take with them pieces of fresh meat to attract smell these amazing predators to the truck. Animals climb the cage than lead overjoyed (some - in horror) tourists.



Thrill seekers can tickle the lion's "tummy" or pat the animal's mane.



Lions during such excursions, as befits the king of beasts, do what they want, walk, rest, climb the cage with tourists and eat out of the hands of conductors.



To the lions willingly approached the truck luring them pieces of meat. Feed the king of beasts from their hands would be great, but it only makes the employees of the zoo. Visitors at this time can take pictures close up.
Truck grille protects visitors from predators, but the feeling that causes the animal to the cage makes some tourists literally cringe.
The boy decided to compare his little hand with a huge paw of a lion.



Children are amazed at what can be so close to such a dangerous animal.



Some children do not tour relished. Natural fear at the sight of dangerous animals - this is a normal reaction that enabled man to survive in the wild.



Lions - carnivorous mammal of the cat family, the weight of which can reach up to 250 pounds. Most of the day - about 20 hours - they are resting, and prefer to hunt at night. In the wild these animals live up to 14 years in captivity - to twenty. People do not hunt lions purposefully, but in history there are many cases of cannibalism. In the food chain, these animals occupy the top position, then there are the Apex predator - their number is not regulated by other predators. However, the population size of these majestic animals is constantly decreasing, so the lions are vulnerable animals.



Among the causes of the declining population of lions is called habitat loss and conflicts with humans. It is only in these photos looks vulnerable people at a meeting with the wild animals, in fact, the biggest predator is man.
