…the rich man is a Dubai prince, apparently…lots of vids, he’s just described as ‘rich man’…it seems a bit in the vein of a watch has to be a Rolex…a rich man’s lion has to be white, they’re the more exclusive lions …plus, that matches his sofa as well…

…it’s just, well wrong…how can anyone have a connection with an animal that’s kept in such limitation and confines and denied its freedom…sure way to promote extinction of beasts…

The Lion
needs the Mega Garden he has.

It's a wild animal. One day it'll turn on him, fingers crossed.

Making sure that Lion
gets fresh dead animals
to eat is a help.

Yes but it needs to be outside
in the massive garden.
It has High Walls


Just make sure no staff are there
during the time the Lion is outside, of course

Its natural instincts will kick in one day. Domesticated dogs occasionally revert to their wild nature, I won't be surprised when this poor creature has had enough of its human. Being rich shouldn't give anyone special dispensation to abuse animals and I think this is abuse.

Back in the day you could buy a lion from Harrods.
Christian the lion was quite famous.
He was taken back to the wild once he outgrew his Chelsea home, when the two lads that brought him up went to see him in the wild he was all over them like an excited puppy.
A good documentary out there on it.

Yes has happened before with

He looks like an AI generated Lion something not quite right about him, sad to see an animal kept in captivity like this

Alf 16-08-2024 04:45 PM

He's using the lion as a fashion accessory. That's all it is to him when you pull away all the crap.

Just thinking about himself, not even the slightest thought what a lions needs

I wondered if he had it sedated when he was interacting with it ..

Or maybe had it’s teeth and claws removed or blunted ?

This is the trouble when people have too much money and no alcohol to spend it on

His owner must buy him those lion edition Dentastix that you always see advertised on the TV. So he's not all bad news! :smug:
