Steve Leonard explains his extreme experience of walking into a Lion's den and being swiftly kicked out again by its occupants. Great animal video from BBC wildlife show 'Steve Leonard: My Life with Animals'.

  • This makes me so mad. They completely faked that.

  • I think that was what happened: 2nd lion comes to sniff the man, one of the crew guy poke him to get off the scene. And lion gives the reaction, that made other lion anxious and that made them feel threatened.. Thats why the sirious growlings for, not "I'm gonna hunt you and kill you and eat the shit out of you"..

    They made them uncomfortable ant they react.. They are predators after all.. Not cuttie cats.. They kill to survive if thats their nature you can't help it.. Misunderstandings happen..

  • @ResonateSilence Not only faked, but very badly faked!

  • once reason the Lion became so defensive was probably becoz of how hard he smacked its Stomach when it was lying on the ground.....

  • someone fire the producer now... what a piece of shit clip. Horrible sensationalist editing...

  • He wasnt attacked!!! How fake is that!

  • @LadyLillianContessa It probably did happen, but they didnt capture it on film so they made a fake reconstruction

  • i actually wish they did kill Steve...such a dumb fuck

  • This video editing is so fake. What a load of wankers.

  • thumbs up if you liked this Attacked by an African lion - Steve Leonard - My Life with Animals: BBC wildlife

  • The lion was probably moving toward Steve and somebody with a stick tried to prevent it from getting close enough to attack him (whether that was the lion's intention or not) which is why the lion was strafing. Steve had turned his back to the lion which is an instinctual invitation for a predator to take advantage of prey. I'm not saying that's what was happening. Just that it's dangerous messing around with undomesticated animals whose behavior (however natural) will appear suddenly erratic.

  • i think they wanted to create drama with steve and the lions
