“Oh, look, honey! A lion! Why don’t we put our young child next to it and tell them to hold the lion’s chain, and quickly capture a photographic memory of the exact moment they develop a lifelong fear of all things feline!”

I LAUGHED SO HARD WHEN I SAW THIS!!! it is so funny…why then is anyone surprised that elementary schools graduated from concrete to tambark and then to softer mats in the play areas with the jungle gyms…

I didn’t say the photo was FROM the 70′s or 80′s, just that these sort of photos were common then, I have seen quite a few of them, most often with lion cubs, but occasionally black leopards too. the can is often drugged to make it sleepy and docile, but I still doubt it’s a shop.

Heidi, does this look it was taken in the 70′s and 80′s? No. And how do you know for sure that it wasn’t photoshoped, Ben came up with valid reasons that would imply that it was.

The fact that it was photoshoped is not out of the relem of posibility, but neither is the fact that it’s real, like you say. We’ll never know fur sure tho, since it is the internet…

It’s not a photoshop, these photos were pretty common in the 70′s and 80′s . Photographers would set up in malls and the like and offer portraits with big cats, most often lion cubs. It is not some wild lion waiting to pounce on the poor terrified toddler. The cat is more than likely drugged, and kids get afraid of things. Would it be a parenting fail to photograph a child with a dog, or a cow, or something else they are unsure of? It is simply a child pictured being unsure, or afraid of something, that isn’t bad parenting.
