Anyone who owns a cat can probably guess what’s about to happen next. The lion is clearly crouching, lowering its head, and slinking closer without losing focus on the boy – all tell-tale signs a cat is about to pounce. Thankfully, the toddler turns away from the glass as the big cat starts running. He only turns back around when he hears the thump from the lion hitting the see-through wall trying desperately to get to the boy. The child is only mildly shocked as he steps a few feet away from the glass. Other kids in the background chuckle at the lion’s failed attempt at a mid-day snack. Watch the big cat in action below:
