When I was going to grad school in Oregon, my wife and I went to a wildlife sanctuary somewhere south of Eugene. At one point we were in an area for African lions and I saw them gnawing on the tires of the car in front of us. One of the tires went flat and a couple of guys in a jeep came and chased the lions away so the person driving that car could get out of the compound and change his flat tire. After we went thru the gate I stopped and looked at our tires and there were lion tooth marks on them. That was a lot of excitement for my wife and child. And me.
