This Lion at Discovery Kingdom is the biggest I've seen to date. He was fenced in on a huge expanse of grass and craggy outcroppings. He was reclined on a boulder when we first saw him; he looked majestic. Below, on the ground, were two lionesses playing around with a ball. In a minute, they tired of it and went their separate ways, to opposite ends of their area.
Of a sudden, the lion leaped down from his perch onto the clueless feline closest to him and proceeded to hump her. She may not have known what hit her but she submitted instantly. Onlookers were taken aback. I, for one, was disoriented in the beginning, didn't know where to place myself--to look away or stare--worried about Bidi and Pippi and what they might be thinking, but I decided that there's nothing more natural than what we were all witnessing. So I said to both of them, "they're making babies..." to which they replied, "Cool!"
In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight--NOT!!! He was busy doing something else.
