A rainy day in Zimbabwe













Hi!
This has been a quite heavy day. It didnt start good with a lot of rain and of course me&one more girl had to go for a longwalk with the 4 LM's(4 lions in the age of 10 months)+one lionhandler!!For those who doesnt know the 4 LM's-they are VERY playful&lively especially when it rains, so usually there has to be 2 lionhandlers on each walk, and we had just one.So we went for 15 min.and suddenly we realized that the lions were gone....OOOOPS!!!Not good!So we spread and started to search for them, but no lions anywhere.We spread again and after a 15-20 min.search the lionhandler found them=)At the end of the walk Mana&Lozi started to stalk a pony&its mummy,and since they were just 30-40 m away Mana suddenly had jumped on the little horse and were hanging from the horse with her claws planted in his back-NOT GOOD.The lions usually stalk the horses but the lionhandlers are suppose to take the lions away from the horses before something like this happens. Poor little pony:( I think its gonna be scared for life..
We just had an induction in snakes and that was very interesting. I hold one of the snakes(a Harold after the newspaper in Zimb.or red-lipped snake)-it was quite scary actually because it was moving all the time,hehe..
Yesterday was a very good day. I was on 4 lionswalks and two of them alone with the lionhandlers. I took a lot of photos and film and I had a very good time playing with the lions. You know:Seaweed or BIG elephantpoo on a stick:-D. They loooove it!=)
