friendship
Mystery. Bond between lion and toddler. Lion comes across, licks&paws at glass; toddler, hands on glass, looks at lion unafraid
"lion lick and paw at glass after becoming 'obsessed' with SC toddler"
(quote)
Lion takes a shine to Rock Hill baby behind glass: "Ever see a lion so obsessed?"
Michael, the male lion, took an immediate shine to Josie. The zoo is a preservation site for endangered animals.
"The lion came right across the enclosure and pawed at the glass, and even licked the glass, with Josie right there just inches from him," Cait said. "The inches were the safety glass, though."
"The video shows the lion only wants to paw at Josie, and Josie is right there looking at the lion with her hands on the glass," Cait said. "She wasn’t scared. She loved it."

Photos of the Day: Lucky Strike, Penguin Parade, Marble Caves, Eagle Training, Birds of Paradise, Three Good Friends
Lucky Strike
Storm chaser and Your Shot photographer Vanessa Neufeld captured this scene in Keyes, Oklahoma. "As the evening descended, so did a barrage of lightning in northwest Oklahoma."
Penguin Parade
A group of gentoo penguins cross the beach at sunrise on Saunders Island, the fourth largest island in the Falkland Islands.
Marble Caves
Las Cuevas de Mármol (The Marble Caves) sit in the middle of General Carrera Lake, which lies between Chile and Argentina. The tunnels and caves are only reachable by boat. The swooping arches have been formed by more than 6,000 years of water lapping against the rock, and the waters change color depending on the time of year.

kind cows rescue baby seal; smart hitchhike: easy egret on gator, frog rodeo, cranky parrot, bossy mantis, borrow eagle's wing
rodeo frog: yeee-haw!
The original piggy back ride: "a seagull hitches a ride on a pig while it swims in the crystal blue sea off the coast of Bahamas. The secluded island of Big Major Cay is home to around 20 porky piggies and the island is affectionately referred to by locals as Pig Beach."
What do you mean you can’t go any faster?!
"A praying mantis hitches a ride on the back of a snail to avoid getting its feet wet on soggy moss in the rainforest. The snail, undisturbed by the apparent intruder, remained relaxed and stationary as the mantis stood on its shell.But travelling by snail isn't the fastest mode of transport and, after a little while, the mantis peers over and notices the snail has not moved."

"We need very strong ears to hear ourselves judged frankly..." Michel de Montaigne on "remarkable act of friendship"
"We need very strong ears to hear ourselves judged frankly, and because there are few who can endure frank criticism without being stung by it, those who venture to criticize us perform a remarkable act of friendship, for to undertake to wound or offend a man for his own good is to have a healthy love for him."
- Michel de Montaigne
"I love everything that's old, - old friends, old times, old manners, old books, old wine."
