When you see a tiger or leopard at the zoo, you can’t help feeling it looks
a little tame, as though something in its wild nature has been lost. Even huge
creatures like elephants or grizzly bears seem diminished when they’re locked
up in a cage. That may be the reason safari parks have become so popular. The
impact of seeing wild animals is so much greater when you can watch them in
their natural state, and the thrill is that much more when only a thin car
window stands between you and a hungry lion.
You are on a safari park tour, following the road through the open savanna.
A short distance from the trail, you see a lion and lioness feeding, hungrily
tearing at and devouring hunks of raw meat. What are you thinking as you watch
this scene of untamed savagery?
