Come to our Indian safari and lose a limb
I don’t know if this ad ever ran anywhere, but it certainly is weird. It advertises the Maneland Jungle Lodge, a safari retreat in a part of India that’s the “last and only home of the Asiatic Lion, a majestic animal who doesn’t hide from visitors.” Nor, it would appear, does it hide from the Maneland staff. See three more executions here, here and here. Via Cool LOking Ads.
