A pet lion's attack on a woman and her children in Lahore leads to arrests and a crackdown on illegal wildlife ownership in Pakistan.
Authorities have taken action against the owners of a pet lion after it escaped and attacked a woman and her three young children in Lahore, Pakistan. Dramatic CCTV footage captured the moment the lion pounced on them, resulting in injuries but, thankfully, all victims are now in stable condition.
