I recieved the e-mail today, just shows how long things stay in the system for

I guess the old can of "Fix a Flat" would not work in this case! Magnificent lions.

These lions did this for quite some time... they would warn you when you went in the park not to stop when the lions were near your car but keep rolling or they would bite your tyres.... It might of been lion park instead of krugersdorp... i cannot remember...

Not my idea of fun....

I love these kind of pictures -and where they were taken - in a "Park" while tourists were in a vehicle -snapping pictures all the while -like they were in a zoo. Maybe some of them might start to think that hunters are not really those bad guys shooting totally innocent critters who just want to be friendly! Hopefully, pictures like this will help to make hunters less like awful people. BTW, I'm certainly no expert on lions but those two certainly looked magnificent in my book. I hope they scared the wits out of the occupants of the vehicles {I do wonder, however, why, they attacked the tires {"tyres" to my English friends} I always understood that the cats never liked the smell of oil and gas and that's why they avoided the tourist camera vehicles in the parks}

This just seems a little dangerous to me... I received an email the other day with a video of a family watching and photographing a herd of lions.. one guy got out to take some pics, and a lioness got hold of him. the pride finished eating him in front of the watching family. hectic.

I would have to guess that there was another vehicle or some really stupid tourist that took the pics. sometimes you just have to say "What the F@#%"
