Tiger sneaks up on man at zoo

On a visit to the San Diego Zoo, my cousin tried to get me to ignore rule number 1 so that he could take a picture. The lion had a “scratching post” that looked like a tree at the end it couldn’t reach. The rest was whittled down from deep claw marks I’ll never forget. At a certain angle I could see there was a pit between visitors and the lion, but there was no way I would turn around for a photo.
