Face to Face with Lions

The most exhilarating experience so far at my monthly Honey Badger Club meetings was being about two and a half meters away from caged lions. Luckily, there was a red line, if we past it , Imelda said, the lions might grab us. There was a very scary moment when we went into one enclosure,divided into two groups and the group that I was in,had to go back past the lions and through an empty cage.It nearly gave me goosebumps!

When we got in the other enclosure,we started hiding food ,like mince meat and herbs that we collected from the herb garden.We filled a black thick tube with mince meat and herbs.We also rubbed herbs on some logs we had gotten from the rhino’s enclosure.

Later,after we had our lunch,we played a game in which we were divided into three groups- reptiles,mammals and birds.We had to find ten cards with one of our group’s animals on it.Unfortunately,my group,mammals,lost but we still got a prize each.

This has been the best experience so far.
