You're getting a lion, never heard of a dog? Dude, you can get past a dog, nobody fucks with a lion.


I know its a tiger, but still.

Awesome movie

 

[joe macclennan]

I knew a guy who had a lion once. That sucker was menacing...even behind a steel cage.

I wouldn't fuck with a lion...or a tiger or a bear for that matter

 

[SirGreenThumb]

I think I would kinda like a panther.

 

[joe macclennan]

I also knew a guy who had a mountain lion. panthers cousin. she was cool as hell. but scary. I saw her jump twenty feet straight up from a crouch with a 15lb piece of meat in her mouth.

they had this little poodle dog. this little mutt would chase the cougar around the house..funny stuff. THat cougar could have killed that dog with a flick of it's paw. but it never did, they were buddies

 

[SirGreenThumb]

That is pretty awesome. I think the only place you can own animals like that is Ohio. I think, not positive.

 

[joe macclennan]

I don't know if they were legal or not?

 

[SirGreenThumb]

haha oh ok.. I just know there is a place in the US where you are allowed to have wild animals.

 

[fr3d12]

I'm guessing but didn't Michael Jackson and Mike Tyson both keep large felines and they both lived in LA

 

[SirGreenThumb]

Was that even true? I know I seen it in the hangover, but idk.

 

[fr3d12]

Was that even true? I know I seen it in the hangover, but idk.

I remember seeing or reading it long before The Hangover but it could still be BS or publicity.
As far as I can remember Jackson had a private zoo so maybe the rules are different for a Zoo etc as opposed to a person wanting to keep a large cat at home.
As you say though it is bound to legal somewhere in the US

Ok ok, I'll admit it, that wasn't my tiger. But I do see him almost every Saturday when I take my son to the zoo. I have a pit named kona and a golden retriever named Molly.

She is about 8 months old and likes to chew up water hoses.

 

[GreatwhiteNorth]

I also knew a guy who had a mountain lion. panthers cousin.

Panther is just another name for Mountain lion.
I know, I know, take that shit to Jeopardy ~right ?~

I wouldn't fuck with a lion...or a tiger or a bear for that matter

I would.

 

[joe macclennan]

that's cuz you're a badass mountain man. Me I'm just a flatlander. Our biggest problem is cows getting on the road.

although there have been reports of mountain lion sightings around recently.

 

[SirGreenThumb]

GWN, you don't know how bad I want to come hunting with you.

 

[SirGreenThumb]

Hmmm, that took an interesting turn. haha, now I kinda feel bad about posting about hunting in a pet thread. If its offensive to anyone tell me and I'll remove it.
