Every day, a small, elderly woman shuffled into her local butcher shop, wheeling a squeaky cart and quietly ordering 90 pounds of meat. The young butcher was puzzled. Who could possibly eat that much every single day?

Curiosity got the better of him. One evening, he followed her. She slowly trundled her heavy load through snowy streets to an abandoned factory on the edge of town. Inside, the smell was strange, the air thick with something wild.

Peeking through a crack, he nearly fainted. Enormous lions paced in cages, their eyes glowing in the dim light. And there she was—the tiny woman, calmly whispering to them about an upcoming fight.

Shocked, he ran straight to the police. When authorities investigated, they discovered she was a former zoologist who had secretly organized illegal lion fights for wealthy spectators after the local zoo closed.
