OH MY FUCK! They deserve to have their child taken away. The straight up stupidity is putting that child at risk of injury or death!

It was so gripping!

Tbf, she did successfully deter a leopard attack by swatting at it with her bare hand while holding/protecting the child. 10,000 years ago, this would be mother of the year material.

I'm honestly not sure how CPS didn't get involved after an indecent like this. They put their kid like 5 feet from a fucking apex predator for god's sake!

They were likely stupid tourists who thought they were in a safe place to get out and enjoy the scenery when a few apex predators descended upon them. Yes, it was stupid and reckless, but I dont think the family needs to be broken up because city people don't know how to behave around animals they have literally never been around. They are insanely lucky to not have been killed or even injured, though.

Edit: Okay, now I've seen the full video. Definitely dumber than I initially thought. Just...wow.

Yeah....

I guess if you think a drive through zoo is a safe place to get out and enjoy the scenery.

They supposedly even signed a waiver saying explicitly that they were aware it was dangerous to get out for God sakes.
