A disturbing video has gone viral showing a wealthy man in Libya allegedly releasing his pet lion on one of his employees—apparently for amusement.

The footage, which surfaced online on July 4, 2025, shows the terrified worker sprinting across the property as the lion chases him.

At one point, the lion catches up, but fortunately does not attack.

Laughter can be heard in the background, adding to the horror of the scene.

The man reportedly referred to the act as a “prank,” but social media users were quick to condemn it as cruel, reckless, and a gross abuse of power.

Many called for legal action, while others highlighted the broader issue of mistreatment faced by vulnerable workers, especially migrants, in parts of North Africa.

Animal rights activists also weighed in, criticizing the use of a wild predator as a tool for intimidation and entertainment.

The incident has reignited conversations about the dangers of exotic pet ownership and the unchecked privilege of the ultra-wealthy.

As of now, no official statement has been released by Libyan authorities, but public pressure is mounting for accountability and justice.
