Completely oblivious, a lion silently stalks closer. The scene reaches a peak as their eyes meet, and a tense silence hangs in the air. However, the encounter takes an unexpected turn.  The lion, seemingly unfazed, breaks eye contact and casually wanders away, leaving the outcome of the interaction a mystery.
