lion and boy
BOISE, Idaho -

A lion tried everything it could to get a little facetime with a young Caldwell boy in a video posted to YouTube on Sunday.

The liion, Obidiah, was very interested in the little guy. Zoo Boise said the lion might have been attracted to something the boy was wearing, but there's no reason to worry, because the glass is thick enough to keep zoo visitors safe.
