Jesus Christ it's a lion get in the car
Quote:
ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia — A 12-year-old girl who was abducted and beaten by men trying to force her into a marriage was found being guarded by three lions who apparently had chased off her captors, a policeman said Tuesday.
The girl, missing for a week, had been taken by seven men who wanted to force her to marry one of them, said Sgt. Wondimu Wedajo, speaking by telephone from the provincial capital of Bita Genet, about 350 miles southwest of Addis Ababa.
She was beaten repeatedly before she was found June 9 by police and relatives on the outskirts of Bita Genet, Wondimu said. She had been guarded by the lions for about half a day, he said.
“They stood guard until we found her and then they just left her like a gift and went back into the forest,” Wondimu said.
“If the lions had not come to her rescue, then it could have been much worse. Often these young girls are raped and severely beaten to force them to accept the marriage,” he said.

I'm glad one of these horrible stories had a happy ending. And that it involved lions.

I would be happier if they'd found the undigestible bits of her attackers with her.

Call me cynical but I wouldn't be surprised if the next story we'll hear is that she was burned as a witch...

So this is the big cats' equivalent to tinned meat.

Re: Jesus Christ it's a lion get in the car
Jesus Christ, it's a lion, get in the car... and roll up the windows!
An American woman has been killed after being attacked in a safari park. Signs at every gate say to keep car windows rolled up. Authorities think the victim's car window was rolled down.

Re: Jesus Christ it's a lion get in the car
Thank you! I knew that picture I'd seen around was fake, but now I have proof. There was something floating around Facebook with that second picture, claiming it was how they filmed the MGM lion. It clearly wanted to get you outraged, but I could tell that the position of the lion was completely off and you couldn't get a roar from a sedated lion. It's so nice to have evidence that I was right.
