Lions are stupid fast! Good shooting!

Thanks UAE.

Seems like a South African fenced lion to me

Yup

Agreed and that Lion was intent on biting somebody. Whether the dark recesses of wildest Africa or within the confines of a fence.

If the f'ing thing got to someone, I doubt they could tell the difference.

I'd say this wounded wild Bots Lion seems a bit quicker.

Having nearly been tagged by a sick old simba wa kike, any lion scares the piss out of me. Leopard too.

no need to chrono Simba. when he's coming your way , its not a good thing.

Poorly treated livestock can be dangerous..that's for sure.

The lion shot in the original video is definitely on a RSA hunt. Regardless of location it would scare me if I was on the ground there for sure. I hunted with Ronnie Krause the PH that actually put in the killing shot on the Bots lion video that Jim posted. It takes some big balls to wait that second or two before firing at muzzle blast range.

That video is impressive no matter how many times I see it...that guy has ice water running through his veins.

Fenced or not, that was a dangerous game hunt.

Not to open the can of worms , but its a canned lion hunt. Ask Sigfried and Roy a tame lion can also bite you , thats not the point . The point is the industry did not run a clean ship and fed the anti trophy hunters with enough ammunition to almost close all hunting , my son who is at a Agriculture college had Blood Lions even screen the movie there - this is to a bunch of 13-17 year olds who want to be farmers or come from farms and shoot anything that walks. Such is the influence of canned lion hunting to send out the anti hunting message , we dont have the money or the resources to follow the Blood Lions propaganda machine around the world , but they are highly mobile using the canned lion industry example of why to close ALL HUNTING , and if we as hunters are still missing this point well get used to hunting squirels and ground hogs because wild hunting will be closed.
