Man hits lions with sandal and bare hand, watch what happens next

Lions are the apex predators with a strong predatory instinct. They often display aggression while hunting prey, defending their territory or competing for mates. Though there are rare instances of lions hunting humans, they can be ferocious predators. Certainly, anyone will not want to mess with the 'King of the Jungle'. However, here we bring a video that shows a man disciplining a lion herd with his footwear.

In circuses, animal trainers tame the lions and other wild animals with whips, guns, chairs and even electric shock stick. Even it is normal to see animal trainers using baton and rope for the purpose. However, have you seen any person using footwear to discipline lions?

Recently, a video surfaced on social media showing a lion scratching the seat of a battery vehicle. However, the man hits its paws with bare hands and starts scolding it. Surprisingly, the lion doesn't attack. Instead, it growls slowly. Further, the clip shows the man hitting several lion cubs with his footwear. Moreover, he also hits a lion with sandals that bite his hand, even when the Big Cat growls.

Furthermore, the clip shows a group of lions fighting. However, they stop as soon as they see the man approaching close. Moreover, when the man took off his sandal, the group of lions scattered out of fear.

As claimed, the footage is of a dilapidated zoo and the man was its director. Most of the animals lacked the ability to survive in the wild. The man couldn't bear to let them die. Most of his salary went to supporting the animals. He had personally raised most of the animals. The man had disciplined the lions with his sandal since those were cubs.
