For this World Lion Day, we thought we’d present our Lion Loving readers with a little guide to our many posts germane to an appreciation for the King of Beasts here on Travalanche. They straddle too many topics to merit their own organizational category here (Animal Acts is as close as we’ll probably ever come), but there are enough that an aid to navigation might be useful. For your delectation, we have:
LION TAMERS
Isaac Van Amburgh, the First Lion Tamer
Dolores Vallecita (eventually specialized in leopards)
Maria Rasputina (daughter of Rasputin)
Sonya Allen (pictured above–this one takes you to another blog)
HUMANS WHO HAVE PLAYED LIONS
IMPLIED HUMAN/LION HYBRIDS
MOVIES FEATURING LIONS
Please don’t miss our previous post about comedies featuring scenes with lions.
And I guess we shouldn’t leave out this guy:
Happy World Lion Day to those who celebrate!
