Kids Rescued From Dangerous Animals

These kids were rescued from animals that wanted to eat them. Horrifying video from 2016 showed a lion cub pouncing on a baby during the taping of the Mexican program "Con Sello de Mujer." In 2023, a gator closed in on a troop of Girl Scouts swimming in a lake. In 2019, a dog pounced on 6-year-old Mason Lindeman while he was playing in his driveway with friends. Inside Edition Digital's Andrea Swindall has more.

The person handling the lion was not paying any attention. That cat gave every intention and telegraphed what it was gonna do.

Show some grace. Some people smile in unusual or shocking moments or situations. I am one of those people. I smile when I am nervous or uncomfortable. Going to a wake is one of those situations and I don't even realize that I'm doing it.

The mom was nervous - nervous smile after the attack. The animal handler tried to comfort the kid and kept the kid from its mom. What??

[@m_atman]

don’t be afraid of them. most alligators aren’t very hostile and usually choose to avoid humans. when they do attack, they can be very aggressive but only if they’re provoked. just don’t go swimming in unfamiliar waters or murky creeks and lakes where they could lurk going unseen. they’re really nothing to worry about if you stay calm and don’t approach them.

[@sonicgalaxy27]

So true.

[@Nathan-ht9sc]

All the domesticated animals like pigs, cows, chickens on farms and dogs and cats in people's houses were once wild animals taken from the wild through the process of domestication (which is a form of befriending and training).
