Lion Tamer on Run with Lions & Son of Circus Boss

[Guest MrRant]

BERLIN (Reuters) - A woman lion tamer has run away from a circus in Germany with eight lions, two tigers and the circus director's son, police said on Friday.

 

The woman, in her late 40s, is believed to have developed a close relationship with the 20-year-old man she was training to become a lion tamer, a police spokesman in the northern German town of Melle said.

 

The couple eloped with a truck containing the animals and is still on the run since disappearing on Monday night.

 

"If she can handle lions and tigers she shouldn't have trouble with a 20-year-old man," said Georg Dongowski, spokesman for the Melle police.

 

The circus director reported the matter to police, saying the theft amounted to a value of around 100,000 euros ($107,300). 

 

I can see running away with someone... but taking LIONS AND TIGERS makes no sense. Unless you are really kinky.

I just hope she doesn't cheat on him and try and start having sex with her other friends.

Ow... I deserved that.

Hey, remember that movie where the boy befriended that gorilla and then went on the run with it? Yeah, me neither...

 

Those wacky Germans...
