He will likely be killed by a young male just reaching sexual maturity. Animals are most unpredictable when their hormones are raging. Also as others have said, he is being selfish in that he's putting other people in danger from these cats. Not to mention making them more easily poached.

As far as fully wild go I doubt it. They would have had to have been conditioned somewhat. The guys a showboater just look at what happened to the last showboater, Steve Irwin. Damn I miss that guy LOL

Oh No You Didn't!

I think there are by far worse people than Irwin but I did not enjoy his shows. However unlike with some other people who just seem to do it for the attention, you did get the impression he cared and he thought this was the best way to pass the message on to as many people as possible. I didn't agree with his approach but I did have some respect for him for trying to make a difference. Still, not a fan.

LOL oh yes I did hehe I will say his methods do leave a lasting impression however far he crossed the line and that was always. He provided entertainment and got a lot of people interested in wildlife conservation. I can't stand that the Sea Shepard named there flag ship after him. Steve was a loon no doubt about that but not Sea Shepard loony.

Although my interest in Steve Irwin wore off quickly, I did respect him and knew he was a man of integrity. He was not a showboater and made sure he took every precaution necessary. He was very calculated but his vocation was inherently dangerous. I felt terrible for his daughter who idolized him. I think Treadway was a bit light in his loafers. There's another older guy that carouses with wild bears too. I saw part of a documentary on him and he looks a little bit wacky as well. He's likely to be killed even though he seems more aware than Treadway did.

The bottom line is: Wild animals are unpredictable no matter how domesticated you may think they are. They can kill you in a 10 second fit. The worst part is that once one Lion attacks this guy, the others will join in as instinct overcomes them.
