Tourists hanging out of their cars at a lion sighting This lion felt threatened and barked at the tourists. If he had decided to attack, there wouldn’t have been enough time to get in the car and close the window. SANPark’s Rules: No part of the body may protrude from the car, either through the window or a sunroof, unless in designated areas. Taken on the S1 near Skukuza in the Kruger National Park in South Africa.
That lion was really thought to be “kind.” He growled, not in a “I’m going to devour you” kind of way, but more of a “stay back” kind of way, almost as if he was warning them about what may happen. The lion does not want to be recorded, so he roars, but his wife stands up and walks away since she does not want to be photographed.
The visitors were saved by the lioness’s enticing the lion away. They should send her something, like a gift basket. What kind of mom would let their two children dangle out of a vehicle window 15 feet from two fully grown wild lions?
Those kids are really fortunate. They had no idea how quickly that lion might have grabbed one, if not both, of them. Thank you for liking and sharing.
