cue "JESUS CHRIST IT'S A LION GET IN THE CAR" picture

Dude, anyone can get past a dog. Nobody farks with a lion.

Go away lunch. Is naptimes now.

So, does anyone know when Gene Simmon's Family Jewels comes on?

This story begs for the 'Darwin' tag...

I'd snap that brainstem

food is stupid

never heard of it. are they even advertising this anywhere?

Nice, Bagelox.

I am sure we will hear from the group of people that actually keep or should I say try to make pets out of lions, tigers, alligators....ect. At some point they all get what they deserve and the animal has to be destroyed. I was sure the Dumbass tag would have trumped Scary on this story.

Oh Darwin where art thou!

how did this woman even manage to become a teacher with a brain like that?

(just out of curiosity...do all big cats go for the jugular?)

I'd hit it

"It is thought the lion intended only to "play" with her after being attracted by her mane-like long blonde hair."

sounds reasonable to me

Lions are carnivores.

They eat meat.

You are made of meat.

+100 "It's just a fluffy kitty" fail.

I'd pounce on it

I'd pounce on it.

So, she likes it rough with a side of biting?

Ijustworkhere: I'd pounce on it

I'm beginning to dislike you.

/7 seconds.

I'd pounce on it.

I'd maul it.

I'd maul it.

Post the pics from the rest of the gallery. Not too bad...brain stem still in question.

Skwidd: So, does anyone know when Gene Simmon's Family Jewels comes on?

Friday.... I think.

I'd pounaul it.

The really stupid part was that she was on vacation in Zimbabwe.

I'd hit it just like the lion did.
/From behind.

I'd bite it.

Thank heavens that at the height of the emergency someone had the foresight to take pictures of her getting mauled by the lion!

Always good to photo-document that failure to help.

Having said that, I'd hit it.

".do all big cats go for the jugular?"

Pretty much.

Rule of thumb: Never own a pet you can't defeat in hand-to-hand combat.

You just never know what's going through their heads - look at what happened to Roy (now *there's* a video I'd pay to see on youtube).

"the lion missed the brainstem by inches"

...probably because it WASN'T THERE!!!!!!

STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM LIONS YOU FREAKING TURD, AND AFTER YOU GET MAULED, DON'T *GRIN* ABOUT IT

Well she is sort of built like a gazelle.

Nice kitty.

Brainstem brainstem (new window)

YankeeAirPirate: Nice, Bagelox.

Just a matter of being in the right place (Fark) at the right time (new news item).

Oh sure, the lion's already working on her defense. Hoping to try this case in the press.

Curse you, Ransom!

dont fark with the little kitties

I dunno about you, but if my friend was being attacked by a lion, I wouldnt just stand around and take photos of the action.

/would make great Christmas cards

"It is thought the lion intended only to "play' with her after being attracted by her mane-like long blonde hair."

Yes, the lion WAS just playing.

Of course, to a lion, eating your head is considered play.
