Face to face with Lions in Australia!

I had the amazing chance to be face to face with these cats at the Melbourne wildlife park… It's hard to describe the experience of feeling their breath on my face and HOW HUGE they are.  Her head was at least twice the size of mine!  So amazing to watch.

Their enclosure was made from just aircraft cable in a wide net cross-cross pattern.  It was almost invisible when you stood right up at it.  She walked right up to it, sniffed me, let out a puff of air with a grunt and walked back to where she was.  Time stood still for that moment as it was just her and me, our faces inches apart. Awesome creatures of God's creation for sure and a great experience!
