The Lions!!

For those of you who have seen the movie "Ghosts in the Darkness," you'll appreicate these photos. These are the actual lions that the movie was based on!!! They live in the Field Musuem in Chicago. These were man-eating lions that killed close to 150 men. I was VERY excited to see them. They were origionally made into rugs, so they're smaller here than they would have been in real life. Interestingly enough these lions are male, but the lions from their area don't generally have manes. If you haven't seen this movie I highly recommend it!
