June 5, 2009: White Lions
 

White Lions, not albino but white fur and blue eyes, were technically extinct in Africa.
They're considered sacred by the native tribes, but a prized trophy by big game hunters, and they were almost wiped out.
The Global White Lion Trust gathered the remaining cats and have been breeding them in captivity. Now they are ready to
release the second pride back into the wild.

I'm sure these cats will be tracked/monitored to the max, and good luck to them.:thumb2:

They tag them so if they come accross them in the wild they know if they have the white ones or the wrong ones. :eyebrow:

lol...nice one Beltnah.

Those animals are beautiful. I wonder what sort of precautions they have taken to keep them away from poachers.

I hope they survive. The world needs more beauty.

i never know these beautiful creatures existed. thanks Bruce. :]

So what would you serve with poached white lion?

A nice side salad?

I thought it was going to be this:

Who says spelling doesn't matter?

Didn't De Klerk and Mandela get rid of the White Lines in Africa? They're gonna be pissed.

Wait. . . Wait. . . I never had a chance...

Kind of a switch. No coloring inside the lions. :D


(i kill me)

bwahahaha

What beautiful creatures. I have the urge to hug them and pet them and give them snout kisses and and and...be mauled.

Oh no...not another thread about white pride. :D

Suddenly I feel much better about MY jokes!


:D

It seems to me that there was another rare feline called
Teralon, the dotted lion.

And don't forget Lambert, the Sheepish Lion!

Welcome blueboy.

Well hello blueboy. Welcome to the cellar.

Threads like this are the mane reason I can't eat lunch while reading The Cellar.

If you are implying that there is something distasteful about snorting macaroni and cheese, just ask my two year old grandson.
(And thank you for the pleasant welcome)

Steve, you're just lion to yourself.

ETA: what, cat got your tongue?

:lol: at you all.

They're back?

ETA: my 1,000th post! Now I wish I had put more thought into it and come up with something better.

Congratulations Sweetwater! You're a kiloposter now!

Which one is Kimba?

Blondes come in bear models too.

At last! Der Ubertiger!

I want to be a baby white tiger minder!

I have never seen a zoo worker wear that much makeup. Usually those types of people are more... practical, I guess.

Probably to cover up the white tiger scratches.
