BR 1-12: Lions!

I read the Lions! Do you like lions? I answer yes!!! And have you ever seen Lions? I answer yes... BUT a old lion.

"Zac, look, there's a lion!"shouted Thomas. The boys enjoyed their trip to see the lions, until there was a problem with the truck. His father pointed at the engine. Steam was coming out of it. Suddenly, Zac shouted "I can't see the lions anywhere." And he saw a big shadow move quickly. It is lion! Suddenly, the engine started.

I told I saw lions but they're not wild lions. There is a lion in a zoo. If they're wild lions, I can't stand it because of scare. If I were in their situation, I would fall down in a faint. I don't want to see wild lions.
