If it wasn't so pathetic it would be funny.

I saw this, an as funy as it is, considering a tibetain mastiff costs about the same (if not MORE) to buy as lion id say those visitors were getting their $2.50 worth! LOL!

That is a pathetic looking cage for a lion (or a large dog, for that matter).

This reminds me of the story where someone called the cops because they thought a person was walking a lion down the street. It was a dog with a lion cut.

China,has terrible animal laws and they skin dogs for their fur, (to be used as faux fur) while the animals are still alive.

Stay away from anything that has fur on it. Never mind what the label says.
