Hugs and kisses for the gay animal trainers, until one of them turned into The Other White Meat.

The lion looks very sweet in the photo, but the shot gives me the creeps.

I thought bestiality was against the law. Someone phone PETA.

Ana Julia Torres, who runs the Villa Lorena animal shelter in Cali, fed and nursed Jupiter the African lion back to health years ago after it was found abused and emaciated in a traveling circus.

They should bring that circus owner in to "play" with Jupiter.

Good point. Maybe the lion is trying to get to that pink candy.

That's cute, but lions don't know from "hugging" and "kissing." I would still be very cautious of a wild beast like that.

America's Funniest Videos had a segment on butterflies tonight. One involved a dog staring in fascination at a butterfly that had landed on his snout. For long moments the dog stared at the insect, almost hypnotized, and my wife said: "Look, he's absolutely fascinated by the butterfly!"

Then in a move too fast for the eye to capture the dog gulped down the Monarch like a doggie treat, and was off to look for more opportunistic snack food.

LOL ........ that would be justice.

Yeah. Notice she keeps the bars between her and Jupiter. She might remember Siegfried & Roy in Las Vegas.
