I feel like this idiot should be locked up or fined or something... He should pay for endangering the lives of innocent humans as well as endangering the lives of the lions. I mean, how stupid can you get? ...lions as pets? At some point, I would begin to question the mental health of the would-be owner of the cats... In any event gghornet, I agree with you. I think that there should be some sore of announcement or something - if there hasn't been already - to say that a specialist should be contacted to tranquilize the cats. The fact that people are taking matters into their own hands could mean more danger. Who knows what the cats will do if they felt threatened.
