Damn it Lion Man!

Least an animal you can count on not to have threesomes with your workmates....

ROFL...he he he

i still watch the program.....no matter what he did in his private life, i still admire him for loving and caring for all his big cats

and yeah...if i'd come home to that, i'd hit my partner too!

TBH Id only give a crap if he was treating his animals badly.. but he isnt. So go the lion man!

i soo wanted to cry but i hate grying in front of people including dp.

as for all the stuff in the media god so what im sure none of us would let our partners off lightly if they cheated. besides a guy who is use to handling big cats proberbly forgets the amount of strength that he has when he isnt with the cats.

im sorry , but no matter what the reason is behind it there is no excuse to hit another human being (except in self defence) if its ok for one person because they are a celebrity and good with animals , where do we draw the line?
We wouldnt tolerate it from anyone else regardless of the situation , we are all told domestic violence is a crime and regardless of the background behind it , there can't and shouldn't be any exceptions to the rule.
Besides, there are 3 sides to every story , your side, their side and the truth .

In saying that , i find it very hard to believe that someone who is so gentle and loving with animals could be like that all the time, and while I dont condone violence for any reason , it hasn't really marred my opinion of him , I don't really think of it at all when i watch him tbh .

Oh and my partner (not my current one) has cheated, and with a (former) friend , and while i was hurt and fuming, i didn't feel the need to hit them ( put prawns in his curtains tho ....)

i dunno seems we're making excuses for him simply because hes THE LION MAN , when if it was anyone else we wouldn't tolerate it .

Ha, im still getting over Mufasa's death in The Lion KIng......

oh ., ok...well it doesnt put me off either , mainly cos i forget about the whole domestic stuff when its on tv , i watch the show for the lions and tigers anyway

Was he convicted? I do wonder about what it says if we have people on tv who have been convicted of violent crime, it just seems to send the wrong message.

The thing I watched about it which was her story was well dodgy but what upset me the most was they had footage of him forcing his main lion (zion is it) to do something he didn't want to for a tv ad and he was flicking his ears and laughing etc. That just totally put me off him. Up until that point I had actually kind of been on his side. Not condoning violence of any sort but I can understand someone losing it when they find someone they love in a compromising position.

I never said you did.
