Well a British tourist found out when she was mauled by two cheetahs that are supposed to be tame enough to pet.
STORY: So Sad! Newborn Killed By Dog While Father Slept
Violet D’Mello had been petting the “tame” cats in the petting area of a South African game park with other tourists when they began attacking an eight-year-old girl.
Violet watched in horror as they clawed and bit Camryn Malan’s leg.
They then lost interest and began eyeing up the local girl’s seven-year-old brother Calum who was trying to flee.
Violet said her holiday turned into a “nightmare” when she intervened and they immediately turned their attention to her:
“It all happened so fast. After his sister was free, the boy ran. As I stopped him, something jumped me from behind,” she said.
Look at the crazy pictures that occurred while Violet was petting the “tamed” animals.
