Woman on donkey fights off lion

Lion NcI swear that even on my best day I’m not sure I could make up some of these stories. In keeping with our (unplanned) animal theme this week, we’ve got a story for you from Acapulco, Mexico.

A woman was riding a donkey with her 7-year-old niece when a lion jumped out and attacked the donkey’s legs. Afraid the lion was going to attack her niece, the woman repeatedly struck at the lion. With a machete.

The lion ran away. It was eventually sedated, but not before it killed two dogs and ate a pig. (Mmmm, bacon – even lions can’t resist it.) The animal had escaped from a private zoo.

Not the first time animals have escaped zoos. Anyone else think that maybe zoos aren’t such a good thing anymore? I admit, we went as children and there were animals we would have never seen without it. But still, not so sure about them anymore.

    This is funny, great minds and animals think alike. No one will believe we didn’t plan this.
