I don't no how much truth is in it as I have not looked into it further, but I read sometching online recently that said around a dozen cats are seized by customs in the uk each year, which if true how many get through and were do they end up ?

Dinosaurs 2,008 Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Watched above vid. What a sad situation for lions & cheetahs alike. Kept hoping they’d maul the bloke. Shame the poor maid paid the price for his indulgence don’t expect much will happen to him as a result of it. Money & position will see to that!! Atb 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Literally only had those cats for the image and the internet fame. That was it. Looked into it a little and seems the doctor who treated that cleaner who died was fired by the minister of health afterwards . Sad state of affairs over there with those cats . If I was that journalist I wouldn't have gone anywhere near that lion let alone let it get on top of me . Very real chance of that cat killing her aspecially when you seen the other guys winding up the cats and running away from them Link to post Share on other sites
jiggy 3,207 Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 That reporter is one dumb bitch to think and trust that those guys know what they are doing. She could of lost her jugular vein at any stage. Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 25,166 Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 People were walking the streets of Britain with lions, tigers, Pumas and leopards upto the mid 70s surprising if there were,nt a few incidents, I think a tiger was about £250 in Harrods back then so probably the same kind of spoilt rich feckers owned them here as well plus the odd scrap yard that had them to guard the yard Link to post Share on other sites

I'd imagine if they had full bellys then they would just sit there licking their nuts and not bother you but then again the fear factor would tell you that bit of copper isn't worth the chance. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Nobody there has any air of knowledge about big cats . Im genuinly surprised more people weren't killed . Maybe they were and didn't make it to hospital and nothing was ever heard about them again. All that bollocks for Instagram followers . Quite sad really 1 Link to post Share on other sites
