They're some of the most dangerous predators. In Florida, I visited this center that helps rescues big cats - it's amazing the work they do: http://bigcatrescue.org/Emily H.

He wasn't old enough to have a mane, had been declawed and defanged, and slept in a doghouse in their backyard. He was behind a fence but it was still really scary. My mom called animal control and they removed the lion and found a place for him in a zoo. I have no idea where our neighbors got him but it certainly wasn't legal. <br /><br />As an adult I feel really sorry for the lion. What a miserable adolescence! I hope he was happy at the zoo.Selahnoreply@blogger.com
