Cranky lion at capital of Texas zoo in Bastrop Texas

First off, this lion is well cared for by the gentleman in the video so please don't think this animal is abused. He was cranky after having his dinner and Vic the caretaker calms him down. Just like a housecat might get cranky at you, this was on a bigger scale. You'll see how the lion actually wants to be by Vic, calming down. I was dumbfounded at how unfettered he was, being so close to a snarling, 600 pound lion!

Thank you for posting this. I am sharing it from my facebook. I love my Bamboo. Although scary looking here, he is mostly docile and playful around me.
