The cub dramatically emerges from a pile of autumn leaves, puts on her “scary” face

Karis, a tiny lion cub living at the Blair Drummond Safari Park in Scotland, would love it if she were offered a part in a horror movie. To this end, she's making the most of every opportunity to act like a zombie and scare the life out of keepers and visitors.

Check out the picture above if you don't believe me. It shows the cub dramatically emerging from a pile of autumn leaves and looking quite determined to find some brains to feast on.

The only problem is that some leaves have somehow gotten stuck to her face, so spotting potential victims could prove a tad difficult.

According to Daily Mail, Karis was born about 11 weeks ago, on September 10. She is growing stronger every day and has recently started to eat meat.

For the time being, she shares an enclosure only with her mom, Teekay. Keepers say they will introduce her to the rest of the pride in about two-three weeks.
