Happy day for the pigeon

Categories: Animals |

This pigeon ran into trouble when he had the imprudence to fly into the lion's cage. The drama played out in front of visitors to the Adelaide Zoo in Australia. Fortunately, the dove managed to avoid a terrible death in the mouth of a hungry lion, and the bird broke free at the last moment. Just a scene from the cartoon about Sylvester and Tweety!
