First off they took young children into a cage with Cheetahs? Then once they did what they were programmed to, the husband took photos? I can see blood from a bite wound on her neck, she is incredibly lucky that cat didnt hit an artery.

It freaked out when it felt the needle and bit my thumb five times in a fraction of a second; it was like having my thumb caught by a car door, I never imagined they could bite that hard. The pain lasted three days!<br /><br />I think house cats (and I suposse dogs too) will consciously control their strength when playing or nipping humans, the same way they control themselves when playing with each other. We should be more appreciative of that... if a small cat can bite this hard, I don´t want to imagine how it feels to be mauled by a cheetah or a lynx!<br /><br />PS- What an asshole, the husband XDCroconutnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8049832311913108906.post-75955885745816628502012-05-06T07:22:02.737-05:002012-05-06T07:22:02.737-05:00I sometimes wonder if the way animals are portraye...I sometimes wonder if the way animals are portrayed in movies has something to do with people assuming that they can be fully tamed? While there might be a few captive carnivores that somehow manage to become docile, primal instinct is not tamable. Cute cubs and kittens will grow up with the same instinctual drives in regards to hunting and prey, no matter if they are caged or not. It is genetic hard-wiring. You cannot educate that out of them. You can only keep them well fed and hope for the best.<br />(When I read that her husband kept shooting photos, I had to wonder if perhaps she had married one of my ex-husbands or into the same family lol.)DeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
