What’s more adorable than baby videos and animal videos? A video of a baby in an animal outfit meeting the real animal.
Eleven-month old boy Aryeh went to the Atlanta Zoo dressed up in a lion suit and came face-to-face with the real king of the jungle. This viral video that captured the interaction is your Internet cuteness dose for the day.
Interestingly, Aryeh means ‘lion’ in Hebrew, and it can be seen how fearlessly he meets his namesake, separated by a glass partition.
The lion looked captivated by little Aryeh and both pressed their ‘paws’ on the glass in greeting.
The video shows Aryeh to be completely unfazed and enjoying meeting the big furry animal. “What is that Aryeh? It’s a big you!” exclaimed a woman filming the scene.
How barren the Internet would be without cute baby and animal videos!
