Poor guy! Ths same thing happened to a friend of ours, when he was visiting a small zoo in an outlying city in Mexico. In his case it was an old, decrepit male lion, but the result was very much the same as is shown here. No warning at all, and then a savage territorial attack.

I suppose that if Phix had been just a trifle less irritated with Medeia...

I was on the periphery of a similar expression of love and affection by a hippopotamus many years ago.
