Wealthy magnate Henry Worthy aimed at the male lion.
His manservant Potts prepared tea. “I believe this hunt is folly, sir.”
Worthy scoffed, “Who’ll stop me?”
Another lion pounced upon Worthy’s back.
Calmly, Potts sipped his tea. “I believe his mate will.”

In place of Potts, I wouldn’t be so calm, because lions hunt in groups, not in pairs, and they’re pretty egalitarian when it comes to comes to choose which human to eat.

I expect Potts paused only for effect, before hightailing it for the interior of the Range Rover. 😉 Lion prides, as you say, don’t really care who’s who.

Hehe. Potts may be fined for “feeding the wildlife” but he can afford it. 😉

Oh yeah. Potts is a survivor. This isn’t the first employer he’s “lost.” 😉 Glad you laughed. Thanks so much! 🙂
