I know there is safety glass between the lion and the child
but it is still bad parenting in my opinion to let this happen
the parents are even laughing aswell what idiot's.
if it was my 1 year old son I would of taken him away from the glass immediately.

I suppose being dressed as a delicious zebra didn't help.
Kid doesn't seem bothered, don't think it'll cause any major psychological damage where he will go on a rampage.

I care about my family but you have to weigh up the actual reality of the safety glass failing.
It's a zoo children are up at that window everyday.
So I take it you won't be going to zoos anytime soon?

If you look at the lion it isn't really "going" for the baby. It just can't work out why it can't get to it.
Having said that I would probably have moved the child - I would also have perferated ear drums from the wife screaming.

I would have thought that with lion opening up its mouth fully, ready to eat the babies head, would have been a give away!
I wouldn't be able to leave my son there, even if he wasn't crying. It is not being over-protective, it is most natural instinct there is.

i can see your point to an extent i know the glass failing would of crossed my mind as a parent myself but would be a pretty funny thing to show the kid when its older all the same. also would make a good thing to threaten the kid with when its misbehaving feeding it to the lions

When my wife is in a bad mood, PMT etc I sometimes do a Steve Irwin voice and say "look at this little blighter, I think shes a bit angry, I best put her back"
The baby was fine, no doubt the Lion would have killed it but it seems more inquisitive than hungry or agressive, immaterial either way.
