Awww, look at the cute ... whoa!!

Holy ... OMG.

As an unidentified off-camera voice observes midway through this video of a lion trying desperately to devour a blissfully oblivious tot: "That's like ... almost ... NOT COOL!"

And then the person who said that bursts out laughing, because there is something undeniably funny about the whole scene, especially when you figure out why the lioness at Portland's Oregon Zoo wants a taste of this particular kid sooooo bad ... this particular kid in the black and white striped hoodie ...

Mmmmmm, baby zebra!!!

I love how the kid barely even notices.

Here's this ferociously fearsome creature, this legendary predator, mere inches behind him ... trying with all her might to break through the pesky invisible wall and pop that little zebra nugget right into her mouth ...

Eh. He's not particularly impressed. Okay? Don't call him, he'll call you. Next!

There's a glass there peopl, don't freak out. And who wouldn't dress a kid like a 1940's chain gang inmate or zebra?

Personally I don't think I could leave my kid next to that as long as they did. I mean I know zoos design habitats with containing this sort of incident in mind but creep factor 10 if that were my kid.

As hilarious as it is, it's also a little disturbing. Remind me never to take my kid to the zoo wearing stripes. lol
