Werribee Open Range Zoo in Austrailia Lets Visitors Get Up Close and Personal
Rose Nazarali — November 8, 2009 — Lifestyle
Werribee Open Range Zoo in Melbourne, Australia, has given visitors a very unique opportunity to get up close and personal with the zoo’s lions. The first picture in the gallery above looks as if the lion is jumping on a car full of passengers; however, those passengers are sitting safely behind a glass pane that separates them from the lions.
Zoo officials entice the lions with raw pieces of meat that attract the lions over to the Jeep so the visitors can really get the feel of being just inches away from a lion.
