What happened to the rehearsal of lion riding in Cangzhou Circus?
On June 65438+1October 1 1, Cirque du Soleil in Cangzhou City, Hebei Province had an accident while rehearsing the "Riding a Lion" program.

At that time, the horse suddenly kicked the lion, which caused the lion to be furious. The lion bit the horse and wouldn't let go. The staff immediately drove the lion away with a whip.

Just as the staff drove the lion back to the cage, because the lion and the tiger were in the same cage, the tiger in the cage took the opportunity to escape from the cage and besieged the horse.

Mr. Xu, a staff member of Cirque du Soleil, said that because horses, lions and tigers are not the same kind of animals, rehearsing such programs will inevitably lead to accidents. This kind of thing has happened before. This time, the white horse is fine, with a little skin injury and no casualties.
