yes - i confess to playing (purposefully) tug-o-war with some sub-adult lions in my youth ... have a long, strong rope with something tied on the end (in that case a bean bag - usually used instead of a tripod in a vehicle), hold onto it tight and drive slowly past the lions ... and just like a bunch of cats, they'll be playing with it in no time! They're very, very strong though - that is my overriding memory aside from the fun we had.
