I had not expected to write any more about lion ladies after I wrote this nine days ago.
I however could not resist the temptation to write again because of this photograph.
The young lady riding the lion is Zaina and the proud father standing next to the lion and the lady is Khaleel who brings Zaina to our local joggers’ park frequently.
The lion is one of the many models of wild animals that have been placed around the park for children’s entertainment. The other models are an elephant, a giraffe, a tiger, a bear and a deer. You can always see some children being put on top of these models of animals and photographs being taken of them like I did for Zaina.
i hope you gave him a copy of this. he will surely treasure it.
she is a lovely little person. very brave!

Yes I did. He wanted the photograph taken.
A very pretty young Lion lady. I would love to know the thoughts going through her head at the time.

It would indeed by very interesting to know what thoughts go through the children’s minds when they sit on these models.
How cute! Unfortunately, in the states sometimes people who ask to take pictures like this are suspected of being some type of pedophile. That’s too bad because I love kids and babies and would love to take more live pictures. This seems like a very nice park.

It has not started to happen here but, some parents exposed to the West do object. I have blogged about it separately.
That lion doesn’t look very fierce. Certainly not fierce enough to stop young girls climbing on his back. I demand a refund!
