Living in lions den for 30 days, UStream live video

Spring Hill, Florida - This is the time of year when a lot of people make New Year's resolutions to lose weight or spend more time with friends and family, but a Spring Hill man has a different goal in mind. James Jablon is living in a lion's den for 30 days.

Jablon, a wildlife rehabilitation expert, plans to spend the month of January inside the fenced enclosure where two African lions named Lea and Ed live. He says he will sleep on hay next to them and eat when they eat.

He says he understands the danger. "Especially if they're playing with something and you try to take it and you go near it, they go after you and when they fight with each other - which they do - you don't want to be near them because as soon as something touches them, they don't concern themselves with who's touching them. They're going to bite."

This is an accident waiting to happen. There are quite a few of these wildlife rehabilitation places in Florida and they end up as news stories on a regular basis when the handlers/caretakers make the wrong move or get just a little careless.
