Ferocious Mort

I worked at a zoo. Up close to the lion in a back room pen with a coworker. We turned to leave and big buddy roared. We both felt pee.

Since Mort is the only one that would be in my house he would be the one to kill me.

There are few sounds more spine-chilling to a primate/ape than that of a tiger or lion growl & roar. Or Mort's for that matter...

I bet Mort has more kills under his fur than the other 3 combined

Amusing how cats either are capable of roaring or purring.

I would fear Mort since you have to live with him. He may not be loud but fear the quiet ones.

Man, that’s half my game library right there. So many roars from monsters, and most of them are just remixes :D

I have 3. One croaks, one whines and one chirps. It never ceases to amaze me how I can tell which cat is upset by the sound of their voice

Wouldn't a housecat's "roar" be more equivalent to the shouting they do just before a cat fight?

Mort can purr and so cannot roar. System was rigged to begin with. Justice for Mort!

I hope Mort is a Terry Pratchett reference, just cause I love Terry Pratchett.

I went to my local zoo a few years ago with my friend and we had lions but they weren't out often. well this day they were and the males roar was so loud and frightening it legit scared the shit outta me.

Some ancient instinct was triggered by this sound. Lions used to be far more widespread in the past. There were even lions in Europe until late antiquity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_lions_in_Europe For most of our species' existence, they were just as serious of a threat to us as bears, wolves and the likes.

I am glad there are emoticons for tiger and lion but it's a pity we will never know the other two animals.

As the owner of a squeaker it's very terrifying.

Mine was squeak chirping and a person I was talking to on the phone thought he was barking. Very intimidating.

My best friend's cat actually loves the 2019 π˜“π˜ͺ𝘰𝘯 π˜’π˜ͺ𝘯𝘨. He doesn't normally take too much notice of movies but he's mesmerized by π˜›π˜©π˜¦ π˜“π˜ͺ𝘰𝘯 π˜’π˜ͺ𝘯𝘨.

Go for it, it's not like she wouldn't wake you up

She doesn't, actually. She's a very gentle soul. Except that time she was kneading my throat (which she does every time she was cuddles) and stuck her paw in my mouth.

Weird hearing a lion roar, I forget how much media likes to dub it over with a tiger's

The famous MGM logo that features a lion is dubbed over with a tiger roar.

2 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 0

Which is weird given that the lion roar is much more impressive (no hate on the tiger, mind). I've heard a lion roar in person - it was in a zoo just over half a mile away and it still made me stop and ponder how safe I really was. Listening to the lion roar in this and hearing it reverberate was awesome

I was at the zoo, looking at some antelope-type animal, when a lion started roaring. Instant freeze, eyes wide with terror, with his butt clenched so tight you couldn't hammer a needle into it. I felt sorry, for this poor animal, because his enclosure was only about 50 yards from the lion exhibit and tiger pit.
