Seeing him, the other visitor also tries to stroke another lion who is lodged in the same cage. When he pets the lion's head, the beast lurches towards him and bites his hand, leaving him screaming in pain. Scared, the man immediately withdraws his hand from the cage and escapes the lion's wrath. Meanwhile, the lion is heard roaring as panicked visitors move away from the cage.
The 15-second clip was shared on a Twitter account called Vicious Videos. The location is not yet known.
