Iblis, please look at the description.

Iblis, please look at the description.
I went to the zoo today and straight to the lion enclosure where I was the only visitor. I had an interesting experience with Iblis the Chester Zoo lion. He got off this rock and started to walk along the enclosure. I walked ahead to two glass screens and waited at the second. Iblis instead of walking past the screen ran at full speed and jumped straight at me. His paws hit the glass screen at about 6 foot high and he ended up scratching at the screen. I think I have been stalked by a lion

Frightening experience Steve, looks to be an old boy feeling a bit grumpy. Cracking shot though must have been worth the scare.

I wasn't scared Maurice, I knew the glass was strong enough to contain the lion. It was a surprise though. I did get some good photos at the zoo :)

Wow Steve - Iblis usually just sits around relaxing, so to get him to come and say hello to you, he must have recognised you as a regular visitor. Great picture of him
