It is pertinent to mention that people should always take caution as approaching wild animals – such as lions, tigers, gorillas, snakes and bears – can be dangerous and life-threatening. People have died or suffered serious injuries during encounters with beasts.

The viral video showed the lion calmly sitting in his enclosure and watching the boy approaching him for interaction. It first looked as if there was no glass to separate them.
