There’s a lion running around in the streets of Karachi. Apparently this lion is a tame one, and belongs to two brothers from the metroplis.
A video of this lion driving around with his owners went viral on social media. It’s really quite a sight!
The Brothers Who Own This Lion
This got us questioning, who are these people? The two viral brothers Hamza and Hassan Hussain are restaurant owners.
Besides being restaurateurs, the two brothers are also animal enthusiasts apparently.

Out of their love of animals, they have an adult African lion as a pet (who are they, Mike Tyson?).

The story about how they raised the lion is interesting too.
The two brothers didn’t get an adult lion as a pet, rather they’ve had him since he was a cub (we think that Lion King trailer got to them too). They have been raising the big cat since he was just two weeks old.
Their carnivorous friend has a name and it’s Simba (told ya that Lion King trailer got em).
As crazy as it sounds, this isn’t the first lion whose fond of long drives. Last year, another man was arrested for driving around his pet lion in a pick-up in Pakistan.
