1. Who was that Grizzly Man who thought the same trust also existed between him and wild bears?

This reminds me of that.

Or Roy Horn whose extensive experience with tigers didn't protect him either.

Don't get me wrong, the cubs are cute but the video almost gives me chills since I'm kinda waiting for the lioness to suddenly snap and... then then the video isn't so cute anymore.

2. Not sure if lions are more predictable that way than tigers

but THAT would be a twist ending.... aw soooo cute....OMG!

Had a cat owner once tell me that her cat was "not licking you, he's TASTING you." :wow:
