JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA: Football fever grips South Africa ahead of
this summer's world cup as this huge lion gets to grip with the
beautiful game. Casting an image that will inspire England's own lions
the majestic cat plays with his favourite football at his enclosure in
Johannesburg Zoo. Footy mad Triton, an 11-year-old male who was born at
the zoo, likes soccer so much he refuses to play ball with any of the
seven females he shares his enclosure with.
