They do this at the Atlanta Zoo now too, I have a friend who went and she said it was funny.

I'm sure with the right guide it can be hilarious but shouldn't they just show video of the acts that they hope to see? Gimmick, if you ask me...

Actually, I've watch recent (2005/2006) documentaries on the National Geographic channel (ch. 108) lately. Let me tell you it is graphic. They have animal footage from Africa that I have never seen in some 30 years of film including Cannibalism and battles between hyennas and lions.

But what I would love to see is an un-editted version of a lion fight; no slow motions or clip stopage. It seems that all film makers censor animal violence.

The only thing that I have seen that comes close to a lion battle is a Brown Bear fight on the Grizzly Man documentary. (Grizzly Man - Treadwell - He died.)
