Having your face eaten by a lion probably looks a bit like this. Some wildlife photographers thought they’d lost their GoPro camera while tracking some lions—instead, those lions had made off with the camera, licking and chewing it.

And it survived! Quite a product. It’s unclear whether the lion’s parental instincts kicked in, and it was trying to carry off what it thought was a small electronic child—or whether it was trying to feast on a chunk of false meat. Either way, it got tired of carrying a camera around in its mouth and dropped it off in the bush. Cue Lion King theme song. [via Telegraph]
