Lion tries to pounce toddler,

People often forget that the animals they are gawping at in the zoo are still…well… wild animals. And wild animals of the apex predator variety see most living, breathing, moving things as prey.

The video was taken at a zoo in Chiba, Japan. According to zookeepers the lion reportedly weighs more than 400lbs. They claim he often gets excited when he sees small children and “wants to play with them”.

Eerrr….we don’t think playing is what this lion had in mind…
