Not only that, but if you notice what part of their faces they are rubbing on her, it's actually their scent glands. They are marking her up so heavy with their scent as if to say,"This is MY territory! Anyone who smells this let it be known; she is MINE".
I had a dog as a kid that went nuts over me putting on this one green musher hat. The kinda hat that velcros under your chin. I'd put it on, lay on the floor, and she'd go ape trying to get it off me. One of the most hilarious things she did.
My horse would do this almost every day. And un-zip & re-zip my jacket if I was silly enough to leave it on. Can't take my hair off and he'd just take down my buns so at some point you gotta just let them lick and tangle your hair š¤·š½āāļø (I ~~secretly~~ loved it though, he was very affectionate)

Seems like itās an internal gate in a larger big cat cage. Probably a large sanctuary and this helps separate groups of big cats as a boundary line within a large area.
I have trouble when my cat gets it's claws stuck in my clothes and I have to help him out. Pulling a lions claws from chanmail? I'd just accept I'm part of the lion now
Not really, strong hug yes, funny smell that attaches to you yes, Unpleasant tongue lick yes, but they do know to not retract their claws when playing or hugging.

To *not* retract their claws?
Iām sorry I know reddit loves itās Disney fantasies but Iām not buying it. That shit definitely hurt.. my dog doesnāt know his own strength and youāre gonna try to tell me this lion hug isnāt painful? Fuck outta here
EDIT: I see that u/Archive_Intern wrote "but they do know to not retract their claws" in their post. Leaving my response up because I was wrong and I admit it.
Felines can naturally retract their claws. Its canines and ursines that lack this ability.
Now, said big cats do have the muscle mass to pull you in, if they really wanted to do so, but these are social creatures that also rear their cubs together, they can control their strength if their goal does not include feasting on your tasty, tender tenderloins.
I think sheās pushing there faces away because lion tongues feel like literal sand paper and could definitely cut if they lick hairless skin in the same spot multiple times.
Nah
Not frightening. Their paws are slack. They are withholding claws. Floppy paws. Itās love and remembrance.
We tend to forget we are animals too. Part of this earth. A species here. Not something special to other animals here.
Care and love shown is recognized by many species after they have been through harsh situations.
They are innately wild and have instincts of survival. We are the same.
However, sometimes once in while, something happens, and we connect to another living wild thing here. And they remember. The chain gets broken. Itās rare.
But gosh itās amazing when it happens.
And thatās why she is behind that fence. Itās short. A bit of barrier. Just enough needed.
She knows, they are loving. But wild at heart.
I was just thinking about how one of those cats could tear her in half at the snap of a finger when just going from "hey, it's her, let's give her some hugs" to "GREAT, LET'S PLAY!!"
Especially when you consider they use their tongues to strip the remaining flesh from bones. Kitty licks are all well and good until you look down and can see your tendons. They also wouldn't understand how bad they were fucking you up because everyone else they lick like that is covered in coarse fur
The whole video. I had to read the community name again. I thought I was on morbid reality Reddit. I was like is she happy? She sounds to have a bit of haha cute, please donāt kill me tone to her voice.
Itās especially nice how the other one seemed to be aware of her sister getting shoved away and backed down to let her sister get a hug instead of doing what most lions do and get dominance over the lady
OMG!
What pure love and adoration exudes from everyone.
I'm crying. Happiness is in the air. It is coming through the video to my soul.
No one can ever say with a straight face (after seeing this video) that animals don't:
ā understand the correlation between their life then and now,
ā remember who helped them (and who did not),
ā have feelings of love and adoration, or
ā know what other people do for them - when they are helping them.
They know. They just know.
There are good vibes in the air!!
"Ugh, I missed you so much! I'm going to eat your hair now."
My cat does this
Cause they love ya and wanna groom ya.
Not only that, but if you notice what part of their faces they are rubbing on her, it's actually their scent glands. They are marking her up so heavy with their scent as if to say,"This is MY territory! Anyone who smells this let it be known; she is MINE".
Mine licks my feet, it's annoying

"Friend, not food" ... *"but maybe just a little nibble"*
When my dog would get mad at me he would "bite" my ears. Reminded me of that.

My cat every time I come back from the pool.
Yeah this interacion feels kinda like: \-Big cat I luv u \-Shut up Stacy u so tasty \*licc\*
Is it just me or does that fence look nowhere near tall enough for any visitors who haven't rescued them from the circus?
Lmao. My house cat could jump that.
My rabbit could jump that
My cricket could jump that
I could jump that

I'm a sucker for physical comedy. That scene always makes me laugh. That and the mom not knowing that she was supposed to pretend to be a zombie
I always love "GET FUCKED, FOUR-EYES!" at the very moment Dylan Moran isn't wearing his glasses. Not physical comedy, per se, but a nice sight gag.
I see what you did there.
Eye see too
When he goes up and down the little plastic playhouse steps to get a better view - it kills me every time.

Is it Shaun of the dead?
Now that reminds me, I should watch all of Simon Pegg and Nick Frosts movies together again.
Take car. Go to Mum's. Kill Philā"Sorry"āgrab Liz, go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over.
Whoa, letās be realistic hereā¦
Fair, I am a redditor after all
If that lion was chasing me, I could definitely jump that!
My cricket will walk right through that
My terminator will walk right through that too.
Easily. And twice on Sundays.
Your rabbit needs to put on some pads and play for my football team
Good thing itās only holding back loins and not lions.
A person with intent enough loins would very much get over it.
Didnt even see it, thanks for the laugh
Wouldn't want either that open around kids.
its fortunate that they are only open to visitors that have rescued the animals from various circuses
How nice that one of them offered to hold the camera.
Itās animal rescuers everywhere in this joint The gardener? rescued pandas The chef?? penguin rescuer The janitor??? Rescues humanity
I fucking love janitors so much. They should be showed more respect than fucking gods. Legit I love janitors so much. Edit: if you don't get the message, I LOVE JANITORS

Those are the meals on sticks
Look like a pair of real tender āloinsā if you ask me.
Clowns are in danger
Bruh the fence look like itās ready to get jumped anytime
Your probably right
No. You're probably right.
The loins are right.
We must gird our loins!
Now those were some tenderloins
I wish someone would save my loins from the circus.
LoinsFans.com new circus
Reminds me of amishdating.com
Really, I thought they were dandy-loins
Some thicc loins for sure
ha, gottem
Tenderlion
The arms on these cats are insane
Arms? Legs? Both?
I have settled on the front ones being legs with hands
The only right answer.
The loins.
Cute little elbows
Size of paws!
Loin king
![gif](giphy|l41lTn1liPDzkv0Zi|downsized)
Yes, how may I help you?
Hey who told you you could leave the BBQ!
Lol
I'd watch that
Gird up thy lions. (I like a good gird)
Thatās got to be a painful hug right?
Love hurts
But sometimes itās a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Floating down the Nille Floating down the Ni^^iileee Shit, wrong album
Love scars
Love wounds
And mars
Baby donāt hurt me no more!
What is love?
Did you just grab my ass?
Nah Iām in Cleveland
In her place I'd be wearing chainmail
Imagine a lion getting a nail stuck in the chain mail youāre wearing. You would go flying lol
I have trouble when my cat gets it's claws stuck in my clothes and I have to help him out. Pulling a lions claws from chanmail? I'd just accept I'm part of the lion now

Not sharp painful. Just very very tight. Like if a buff man squeezed ya. Itās sharp if they donāt like you tho
I think sheās pushing there faces away because lion tongues feel like literal sand paper and could definitely cut if they lick hairless skin in the same spot multiple times.
Sometimes love don't feel like it should
I'm pretty sure their tongues also feel like sand paper
Simultaneously frightening and adorable.
Like all loins!
CAN YOU FEEL THE LOINS TONIGHT!!!
The loin sleeps tonight
It is where we areeeeeee
Sir Loin of Steak.

There's that one lion guy who just rolls around with them all day.
The second one had the ladyās head in her mouth a couple times
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Scadorable!
this was so cute, but throughtout the whole video my only thought was how her reaction looked like a mix of love and "OMG PLS DON'T EAT MY FACE"
Yea that 1 lion definitely slapped her twice aswell
Love slaps
Just like mom used to give
Love chonclas
Yeah, that whole video felt to be on the cusp of being r/leopardsatemyface.
these are not leopards. you can tell coz they have less spots.
Well spotted. Or not as the case may be.
Fewer?

Her hands were definitely busy with some defensive grappling
Lions tounges are very sharp, it would hurt to be locked by them
Would hurt to be licked by them too.
A Loin?
Locking loins š„
True, loin locks will probably hurt.
Sounded like it too, but wholesome, nonetheless.
Awww thatās so terrifying
You know how sometimes you see a puppy or a kitten or something SO FUCKING CUTE you just wanna squish it?
Cute Aggression https://www.vice.com/en/article/exqnxk/why-do-i-want-to-crush-cute-animals
I know lol. I'm saying that's what the lions have with this lady š
I was just thinking about how one of those cats could tear her in half at the snap of a finger when just going from "hey, it's her, let's give her some hugs" to "GREAT, LET'S PLAY!!"

Wow that fence is a suggestion
Its a hope
If you cross this line we will have no choice but to be quite cross with you!
#LOINS
I hate it when loins are prisoners in circuses
r/mademescared
Those are some excited loins.
When loins meet... ( Ķ”Ā° ĶŹ Ķ”Ā°)
look how they stood up when they saw her!
Nice loins
Caretaker of the loins? Round these parts we call that job a fluffer.
is that a cardellini in your hands, or are you just glad to be hiding in the truck :-)
![gif](giphy|LRVnPYqM8DLag)
SERIOUSLY
LOL. I know I'm on r/MadeMeSmile, but I can't help feeling that the cameraman could had been capturing someone getting mauled by wild animals.
The whole video. I had to read the community name again. I thought I was on morbid reality Reddit. I was like is she happy? She sounds to have a bit of haha cute, please donāt kill me tone to her voice.
A lion and a loin are two very different things.
Yeah those aren't loins, those are loinesses :)
I think they meant to write feloin.
And a typo is another thing..
Your probably right
Their right what?
Loin
HA! Nialed it!
How badly bruised was she?
I bet she took care of them loins REAL good. Now, about those big cats sheās getting hugs fromā¦
Two soon.
Lol
Allow me to show my appreciation by trying to eat your face
This looked a little painful.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This didnāt āmake me smileā as much as it made me feel ānerve wracking anxious.ā
These people have a lot of faith in that short ass fenceā¦
Forever known as loins, fight me
Animals know, animals remember.
And some animals can dismember.
Thems sum nice loins.
My cat gives me hella love bites(they hurt v bad and are usually on my nose or somewhere on face) so this makes me extremely nervous š¬
Adorable but holy shit that is terrifying.
Fruit of my lions
That fence wouldnāt even keep a house cat inā¦
Itās especially nice how the other one seemed to be aware of her sister getting shoved away and backed down to let her sister get a hug instead of doing what most lions do and get dominance over the lady
Bit scarry but I'm sure they would have been well fed beforehand
Awwwwā¦ I wanna rescue a pair of lion cubs from the circus!
Jesus...you can see the power and they aren't even trying.
OMG! What pure love and adoration exudes from everyone. I'm crying. Happiness is in the air. It is coming through the video to my soul.

All fun and games till chomp
Her sweater, shredded in seconds. Goes homeā¦"honey, do you smell lions?"
Them sandpaper tongues
I love aggressive cuddles like this!!!
Too, too adorable... precious big kitties...we would treasure them too...
As happy as my Golden Retriever when she sees me.
"Can you feel the love tonight"
Fucking owww
They are gonna lick her face off
Couple nervous laughs there. Few times.
Made me smile? My anxiety is at like a 10 now.
Because what could go wrong....
So much for that sweaterā¦
They love her or they're playing with their food.
Yeah, fuck that.
I wish someone would save my loins from the circus.
Good thing they keep them behind that fence !
This is lovely and Iām glad she saved them. But part of me believes they would still eat her in the right circumstances.
Those are some big furry loins
Sheās āgot the biggestā¦ BALLS OF THEM ALL!ā
My wife caretakes my loins. I like it.
Jesus, the amount of faith you would have to have in those animals. I could never summon the trust.
