I'm glad that photographer is dead, serves him right. That's not a fucking wildabeast being chased by a lion, it's a human being, you help it. This world makes me wonder sometimes.
I thought I read something where if he was to give the little kid food or something, the food probably would have killed the kid right there. And that there were also many many people in that area who where in that kind of shape. That picture alone made thousands if not millions of people around the globe want to help other people in one way or another. I'd say he did an amazing thing just wanting to be there and let others experience it.
