This video is very graphic and the lion is shot in the end, so be prepared for shocking video that will be very upsetting.  This video of a man being nearly mauled to death in a lion cage is very disturbing. Only play this video if you are over 18 and can handle the horrific images of a man being mauled

This video of a man being mauled nearly to death by a lion was first posted in April of 2007.  We do not know where this happened, but the fact that a man was mauled severely, while in a lion's cage indicates that this was one tragedy that never should have happened.  To see more headlines of people being killed and maimed by captive big cats and incidents of big cat escapes visit:  http://www.bigcatrescue.org/big_cat_news.htm
