Lions surround you in this 360-degree enclosure

For those who have the mettle to come face-to-face with a lion, an Australian zoo is opening an enclosure — except the humans are inside.

An experience called Lions 360 is opening at Monarto Zoo in South Australia. It’s a caged enclosure that allows visitors to walk right into the middle of the animals’ ten hectare habitat.

Despite the proximity, the experience is an “absolutely safe encounter,” giving visitors “a prey’s-eye view into the world of these awe-inspiring predators,” according to a description on the Lions 360 website. 

Opening from Nov. 18, the experience lasts 60 minutes and costs A$60 (US$45) for adults, with an extra cost to feed the lions as well. The lions are able to climb on top of the enclosure, and can be fed by zoo staff through the cages. Read more…
