It’s easy to forget just how dangerous big cats can be when you spend enough time looking at their adorable photos online. Trust us—we know from experience! In our line of work, we’re constantly scrolling through pictures of cute lions, tigers, and other majestic felines. Not that we’re complaining, of course, but we do sometimes joke that one day we’ll make the news for petting something we absolutely shouldn’t. Because honestly? We forget. Can you blame us? They’re just that adorable.
If given the chance, we’d probably do our best to make friends with them (not that we recommend it). That’s why it’s good to get a reminder every once in a while about why it’s best not to reach into the cage at the zoo—no matter how cute that lion may be.
And what better way to demonstrate just how powerful these magnificent animals are than by letting a couple of professional wrestlers go toe-to-toe with an adorable lioness in a game of tug-of-war? We all know lions are strong, but even we were taken aback by what happened next. The pan of that camera didn’t just surprise everyone watching—it surprised us, too.
So, next time you find yourself drawn in by those big, soulful eyes, just remember: beauty and strength often go hand in paw.
