Icelandic student Alexander M?ni K?rason snuggling up to two young lions in Antelope Park, Zimbawbe. VARIOUS: THESE breath-taking selfies showcase some of the wildest wildlife encounters ? including a KISS from a bear, a SNUGGLE from a lion, and a toothy grin from a crocodile. In one image, Gatorland employee Savannah Boan gave a big thumbs up to the camera as she crouched next to a 13-foot-long crocodile called Dundee at the Gatorland Wildlife Park in Orlando, Florida, USA.
