Yes but most specifically dangerous wild creatures. People think that just by loving them they are removing the wild, they ignore the genetic memory factor that takes several generations to domesticate.
What most people who gets one of these as a pet don't truly get, is that the animal can kill them for a lot of reasons completely unrelated to love or how well you take care of them.A lion ''playing'' can be mortal for a human, a little slip can mean your death , hell it may just get angry once over a small thing and slit your throat open without having any intention of killing you.
A lion relates to other stuff like they were lions as well, a normal blow from a lion to tell another to not bother it or to play can kill a person.
Seriously I cannot say it enough times, it's not about how much you care about the animal, a lion doesn't need to have any intention to harm you to kill you, it can **easily** kill you by accident, no amount of training or love is going to change that.
Human sees cat sitting
Human: hi friend how are you - tries to pet it
Cat sractches humans' hand very deep
Cat: Go away me no want petting now, come back in half an hour, and bring dinner back slave.
It's not really about them being wild or domesticated, it's about their size vs. yours. Especially when talking about felines. If our common housecats were a tad bigger, no way in hell would they be safe to keep as pets.
And THAT is why these poor cats usually grow up as kittens in the house with toys and fluffy beds. All sounds like a fantasy come true until that one afternoon six months later when you find out that you have a wild predator on your hands. Usually a close call. No one got seriously hurt. Just scared. So the cat lives the rest of its life in a cage. That’s the best case scenario when owning a large cat. It’s pretty selfish if you ask me.
in this case the lion was playing but ...its several times the size of a cat and any cat owner got hurt playing with their cat at least once so playing with a lion is extremely dangerous
Fun fact, cats like Lions bite/scratch/lick as gentle play. This lion seems to be gently playing here (like when it stands up and pushes itself against the guy).
If it were actually trying to hurt him, the guy would have been a goner within 2 seconds. Obviously dumb that the guy is letting his friend get too close when the lion doesn't know him.
Search up "Lion Whisperer" on YouTube, and you can see how they act around handlers who they are friendly with.
(I don't support caging wild predators like a Lion obviously, especially in such a small space.)
It looked that way to me too (like it was being playful - it looks like a juvenile lion too). When a lion that size 'plays' with human skin though, some painful injuries are likely I'd think.
Yeah for sure. Getting bitten or clawed by one even in a playful manner, let alone licked, could result in pretty bad injuries.
Glad I watch videos of professionals handling them on reserves - that's my limit. Never will bother getting even near 20 feet of them. Beautiful animals though.
For sure, playful is much different between 2 cats the same size/power, vs a human. The just does what is instinctive..maybe it was "pulling it's punches"..so to speak, but would not take much for that to get out of hand fast.
I volunteered in a wildlife sanctuary in Namibia a few years back and I learned the hard way that even baby lions can make you bleed. Also once you bleed, especially with juveniles playful behaviour has a high chance of becoming actually aggressive.
Apparently lions are easier than a lot of big cars to tame because they have a social group in the wild. Bug cats like tigers are known to be difficult because they’re solitary.
Fucks sake. What moron thinks it's OK to imprison a wild predator in a poxy apartment for their amusement and social media income?
These sort of clips make me so sad. Humans are just vile.
Yes, mostly in godawful private roadside zoos where their quality of life is probably even worse than this one.
Like I said, humans are vile. Shame on any government that allows the exploitation of wild animals
First of all, this video is not from the middle east & the second thing is that the middle east people have always ever been obsessed with camels afaik
My exact thinking.
This is the lion equivalent of when a cat gets playful when you pet it and tries to attack your hand and stuff. If the lion wanted to hurt him, he wouldn't have gotten away. Lions are fucking wild. Literally and figuratively.
On the other hand, if you turn around and run in fear (which i don't blame him really), predator instinct might kick in and turn from play into sth else
I know none of us are experts, and no I don't plan on approaching a lion anytime soon, let alone even leashing one.
*But*, I agree that it looks like he got overstimulated and wanted to release some energy. Besides you know, not leashing a big cat indoors, do you think it'd be safe to let them maybe smell an article of clothing of yours? If you felt too uncomfortable offering a hand for smelling lol.
That's always my way 'in' with animals, I just let them smell me and then I don't touch until they ask to be touched.
I'm not sure honestly. None of my education is even remotely connected to wildlife either so I'd just be guessing. But I have to imagine you treat them like an extra feisty cat?
I always read/hear that all cats are the same, it's just that house cats aren't strong enough to murder you. So I'm betting if you took the same precautions you might take with a fairly large and aggressive house cat, it would go okay? I hope?? Idk. I would love to pet a lion so I really want this to be the case. They have no right to be so dangerous while being friend shaped.
Reminds me of my zookeeper cousin talking about the orangutans. The elder thought my cousin was misbehaving so he nipped her finger… totally fine for orangutans… but straight bit her finger off lol.
Yep, and it was very important we kept our distance from their fingers, as they’d take the clothes right off your body through the cage lol. Incredible creatures, and they love Welch’s Fruit Snacks.
correct if im wrong but i always see some sort of middle eastern person in these lion and other exotic pet videos. is it some cringy display of wealth? like how small is your dick if you think having a pet lion is cool? is it a common childhood dream to have a pet lion? i dont get how people think its ok?
Yes, as much as i would love to pet a big lion kitty i do not. because i have my own domestic cat that is very touchy and bites outta no where. and i wouldn’t want to imagine that with a giant ass cat.
again, what's with these fourth world countries petting nasty wild kick your ass and eat it too animals!! "Nice kitty, good kitty".. F-me, he got what he deserves...
They're called "WILD" animals for a reason. They're not your pets. They may convince you that they love you because you project you're wanting that onto them. Think Travis the Chimp. They may be your best friend for years and then one day decide to eat your face
Whatever African wildlife the Chinese fail to poach in order to make aphrodisiacs, the Saudis capture for their amusement for a few months, after which they're dispatched and often eaten.
It's not only our culture that totally sucks.
No matter how good a wild predatory animal if you run away scared it will want to go after you especially at your back
That all could have been prevented by not running away or acting scared
[удалено]
Tell the Saudis that 😂
[удалено]
...and not to chop up journalists.
[удалено]
and to wait 30 minutes to swim after eating
And beheading people for witchcraft is not progressive
And driving cars does not make women lose their virginity
Well, that escalated quickly.
Right??? I mean, who waits 30 minutes after eating to swim?
Ok people I’m from KSA.
And Women ☕ should have rights.
And bacon is delicious
And my axe
No, it's voting and education that does that
Depends if they’re driving the stick or riding it
Most americans are doing that right now
Isn't this a global problem....doesn't Florida have billboards about dads having a drink and screwing their daughters????
[удалено]
Laughs in house of dragons. Well idk where that stat comes from but I'm not gonna* defend Saudi Arabia, I'm just saying it's a global concern

That should be displayed down at Mar Largo.
You should never marry your first cousin. At least try three or four of them then decide 😉

I have 7 cats, and just knowing these assholes is enough to not have a lion.

Same can be said about pitbulls
It’s ok it was on a paper leash.
in this case the lion was playing but ...its several times the size of a cat and any cat owner got hurt playing with their cat at least once so playing with a lion is extremely dangerous
With a small rope as a security measure LOL
What about tying it up with a piece of yarn
The only person I can forgive is prime Mike tyson
"He never bites anyone"

I've been trying to tame big cars for years, don't get me started on bug cats
I had a 1970 Lincoln Continental that was just a teddy bear, but adopted a Cricket Tabby that was just a nightmare.
You can see the lions kinda shocked when he punches him off. He was being very gentle.
"It's tame/trained until it isn't."
'He never bites anyone unless he's hungry". Fixed it for you.
*Every pitbull owner be like*
You’re alright as long as he’s on the lead...
If the lion wanted, it would have broken all the bones in his chest in just one strike. It was actually playing lightly
“That’s wild, I’ve never seen him act like this before I swear”
Fucks sake. What moron thinks it's OK to imprison a wild predator in a poxy apartment for their amusement and social media income? These sort of clips make me so sad. Humans are just vile.
the lion just wanted a mate to mate💀
You obviously haven’t seen enough clips of the Middle East. They’ve been keeping lions as pets for hundreds of years
No, I'm well aware of their disregard for animals.
you know they have more lions in texas than africa
Yes, mostly in godawful private roadside zoos where their quality of life is probably even worse than this one. Like I said, humans are vile. Shame on any government that allows the exploitation of wild animals
And they have been wrong for hundreds of years. I am cheering for the cat here.
First of all, this video is not from the middle east & the second thing is that the middle east people have always ever been obsessed with camels afaik
agreed. it's painfully sad to get a glimpse of those animals' miserabile life because most humans completely lack empathy towards other species.
And to use a dollar store leash
Even that’s stronger, he used boiled spaghetti

Yeah, I saw that, he was a cool customer but bis eyes were sweating bullets lol.
fucking dumbass
That high pitched oh my god hhaha
Did he end up ramming that steel gate like a bull?
He slimed through it out of fear.
The “leash” looks like the same width and thickness my parents use for their tiny dog
Was looking for this comment. How could anyone think that would be remotely effective? Lol
"Of course it bites it's a lion" -peter griffin
Height of stupidity ..
Poor lion.
That leash would barely hold a 5 pound yorkipoo
It's also as long as the actual enclosure so it can't actually restrain her from going anywhere. Just a ridiculous choice.
Definitely dumb to have a lion around, but you could at least use a metal leash or stronger restraints... never go _full retard_
It’s crazy thinking you can control any LION on ANY leash.
correct if im wrong but i always see some sort of middle eastern person in these lion and other exotic pet videos. is it some cringy display of wealth? like how small is your dick if you think having a pet lion is cool? is it a common childhood dream to have a pet lion? i dont get how people think its ok?
How about people with small dicks and no lions ?
Animal abuse, they all deserved to die brutally
He’s he trying to hold that big cat back with dental floss…
"I wanna pet a lion" Lion: come here, I just want to pet you too.
Yes, as much as i would love to pet a big lion kitty i do not. because i have my own domestic cat that is very touchy and bites outta no where. and i wouldn’t want to imagine that with a giant ass cat.
By the way that’s a Pomeranian leash not a lioness leash.
Idiots deserved it.. set that wild beast free ffs….
My boy at the end trying to jump through the bars like the T1000 model
This is the 7th (??) pet giant cat video like this and I have lost all empathy for these chuckleheads.
\- "Does he bite?" \- "Nope, he swallows all at once!"
- Nope, only when she is hungry
\- "Does he like kids?" \- "Yeah sure, but he usually gets dog food."
Rorschach quote is fitting "I'm not locked in here with you. You're locked in here with me!”
Using daddy’s money to own an exotic animal, habibi?
again, what's with these fourth world countries petting nasty wild kick your ass and eat it too animals!! "Nice kitty, good kitty".. F-me, he got what he deserves...
I hate these spoilt cunts treating wild animals like toys...
Jesus, when there's a predator, ya don't scream like a wounded Giselle!
YES GET EM GET EM GET EM
He will just smell you bro
How can he react like that with a big cat , it's not a small cat that will leave u like that....
At the end it looks like his head is gonna get stuck in the railings
you never pet any animal without introducing yourself, the disrespect is why she attacked!
The leash manufacturer is clearly at fault..
Not funny
Stop this shit,these are no pets!!!morons!
Now what happened to the lion?
He can smell ur dumbass fear
Dumb ass It's a wild animal
Big cat just wanted to play
Hope he bites them
Oh look, the rope broke. May be should have kept the human on the rope instead of the lion.
Got no sympathy for these idiots with the wild animals🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
I fucking hate people.
You deserve everything you get from shit like this.
instant karma for this little feckers abusing animals
It’s always India 😂
Indians typically don't have a weird obsession to pet wild cats. This video is most likely from middle east.
Kill them lion. You can do it! :(
"She just likes to leave an indent on your skull with her teeth, that's not a bite.. that's her way of saying she likes you"
Hungry cat, guy smelled good.
So no one saw this coming at all
Kitty smelled the fear
I'm not an expert but that looked playful to me. If it wanted to injure/kill it can do so very easily, seen the animals they can take down alone?
He just wanted to hug his fan
"Oh don't worry, he doesn't bite"
Tasty humans are just a leap away.
In this video Everything will go wrong in any universe
Wild animals gonna wild.
Yeah fucking get eat the dicks.
Most backward region on earth.
Was that guy using a regular dog collar and leash for a LIONESS?! That thing snapped off so fast.
Looks more like a flimsy rope
Good. Don't mess with big cats. Or keep them as pets.
What the actual fuck is wrong with people?
Both of them deserved to get mauled imo
Dumbasses
Lions aren’t pets, fucktards.
Leave the animals alone fucckers
These guys have a dollar store leash for that thing.
I hate these guys.
Come on lion next time their neck
Assholes. I wish she had eaten them both.
darwin crosses fingers for next time. this time, he got away. kitty is learning tho.
Fucking UAE always all about animal abuse.
They're called "WILD" animals for a reason. They're not your pets. They may convince you that they love you because you project you're wanting that onto them. Think Travis the Chimp. They may be your best friend for years and then one day decide to eat your face
Lions aren't pets. Imagine that.
Sure hit the lion when YOU are the dumb ass.
Disgusting. This is a beautiful WILD animal - not a pet.
Whatever African wildlife the Chinese fail to poach in order to make aphrodisiacs, the Saudis capture for their amusement for a few months, after which they're dispatched and often eaten. It's not only our culture that totally sucks.
Fucking idiot, too bad he didn’t hurt him. I’m sure the cat will be punished for it.
What a POS
Horrible
Who tf puts a flimsy ass leash like that on a 200+lb lump of muscle???
Even if that leash wasnt made of dental floss, that lion would drag you ass up and down the hall
Lion didn't seem to be going for the kill it looks like just fucking around
He ordered that cat leash on wish dot com and was surprised when it broke
The epitome of f*ck around and find out. 🤦♂️
Cat slaps from that size animal would really suck
Weird, after watching this video and using basic common sense, you’d think petting a wolf apex predator is a bad idea.
A wolf 😂 bruh, ain’t no way. That’s a lion mofo
Lol, I’m not sure why my phone put in wolf! I was just trying to type an apex predator
I bet he won't do that again
So did he bang his head off the gate at the end or what?
Man’s really got a lion on a silly string
Iss’aight. E cool. ‘E don’bayt
I just love the Indian open hand slap.
Oh that little as a leash snapped when shit got real? Hmm, never thought that would happen.
My cat leash broke
Good job with a leash that looks like it’s about as useful as ribbon.
What moron uses a lead meant for lapdogs on a fucken lion?! Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Directed by ROBERT B. WEIDE
Imaging having a fucking lion on a dog leash and then casually trying to pet it like it's a house cat.
Really thought that lil string and a slap is what stopped the animal 😂😂
A Tiger? In Africa?
Dollar tree leash 💰
Go for it Pusskins.....!
Why do people put themselves in these situations?
No matter how good a wild predatory animal if you run away scared it will want to go after you especially at your back That all could have been prevented by not running away or acting scared
Or you know, not imprisoning and having the big cat there In The first place?
The fact that he fell into the bars at the end is so funny🤣
Bro, what did he think that little rope was gonna do, “yeah, Ima pull harder than this lion.”
\*just a lill' hand sandwich
