      That's what Stone Age conservatives said about wolves once too.
      And then we made dogs of them wolves.
      Domesticating lions would take too long for contemporary generations to reap the cuddly benefits though.
      But if we apply our human ingenuity, I'm sure we can come up with a secure and reliable way to lobotomize lion cubs in order to turn them into docile, cuddly pets. Sure, they won't be good for much else afterwards - but if you can afford a pet lion to begin with, that shouldn't bother you much, right?

      As much of a dream this is, we have tamed possibly 4 different canine species. Half of them are extinct, and that's the Hare Indian dog (coyote), Fuegian dog (culpeo), and the extant ones are the domestic dog and the Russian fox.
      The reason we could do this is that canines are social animals, have an omnivorous diet, and have at least a social heirachal structure.
      The problem with felid domestication is that most of them are solitary and fight each other often, they are incredibly predatory, that means they hunt and kill and only eat nothing but flesh and blood, we only tamed one, one of the smallest ones but the cheetah is far too independent and finicky when it comes to breeding for plausible domestication.

    If you are young and think you might want to get involved with wildlife…. DO IT NOW…. Before life passes you by. It goes quickly.
    I’ve spent much of my life with domestic animals,but the last 15 or so years have truly started to understand my dog family. Spent most of my life working as a nurse. Wish I would have worked with animals instead.
    Love watching these videos of true love and compassion being displayed both ways.

    The way you take care of Lions is impressive. You are absolutely right. You need to have love, patience, and empathy. With this, in addition to the care being healthier and more natural, you also have their reciprocity, of being grateful and loving towards you, even with the feline instincts that they have by nature. And besides that, the relationship with them becomes lighter, more pleasurable and super healthy.
    Congratulations, you dedicate yourself in the best possible way, right with your Lions, that is, animals.❤️❤️❤️👌🏽✅🦁🐆🦧🦮🦝🐿️❤️❤️❤️🥰
