Man-eater
A couple of days ago, our driver showed us a video clip of a lion killing a man. In a cage. Somewhere in Iraq. I didn't see the beginning but did see the part where the lion was sitting calmly with his mouth around the man's neck.
The whole thing was being filmed on someone's phone I think, someone who was standing outside the cage waiting for help to come.
Help finally did come - a guard came with a gun or electric stun gun and shot the lion. Two loud shots. Lion collapses (stunned? dead?) and two people rush in to retrieve the man.
But they were too late.
Apparently he was the lion's trainer and had been in the cage alone with the animal.
Pretty shocking.
I couldn't eat my dinner.
