Ranger in Lanseria, South Africa, tames the savage beast

Got this from an email chain, thought it was actually worth "forwarding" to the interwebs. These images are not only amazing, but give some serious perspective as to just how large these animals are.

 

Ranger in Lanseria, South Africa

 

This Ranger is assigned to prevent poaching around the wildlife refuge area of Lanseria , South Africa . The way these animals interact with him is absolutely stunning! The lions seem to know he’s there to protect them. His charm works with hyenas and cougars too. Hyenas are usually vicious. Checkout the pictures taken in the river – amazing because lions hate water.

Sandwich Petals - Episode 47

A little odd, but these sandwich petals turned out to be pretty useful as soft taco shells. Not sure how they'd be as a component to a sandwich, but we can say that we enjoyed them with some fajita mix.

Choice Batter - Episode 46

Holy... frickin... cow, folks! I sure wish these guys would sponsor GFree TV, because man is this product AWESOME! We could rave about this batter mix till the cows come home. We tried it on onion rings, chicken, and apples (yes, apples!). Can't wait to try this on, um, EVERYTHING!!!

The perfect birthday card

Bora Bora Bars - Episode 45

These bars have the look and feel of something tropical, but don't let looks deceive you--they're made in what seems to be the gluten-free capital of America: Denver, Colorado. Nevertheless, they're a great way to be sure you're getting nutritious GF foods on the go.

Doodles Cookies - Episode 43

All we can say about these is that they deliver. Mike couldn't tell the difference between these and the peanut butter cookies that Debbie used to make before going gluten-free.

Better Batter Brownies

With a name like Better Batter, it has to be good, right? Mostly. These brownie bites were a little hard to get out of the pan and they sunk and firmed up the next day... but flavor-wise? Definitely better than most others we've tried.

Conte's Stuffed Shells - Episode 37

We liked Conte's raviolis when we last reviewed them, but have you ever wondered if those stuffed shells you've seen are worth a try? Well, they are! But they're not without their misgivings: the cheese never sticks to the shells, causing a one-after-the-other eating experience. On the bright side, you get to decide which to eat first: the ricotta cheese or the shell. Add your favorite pasta sauce to complete the meal.

Mikuni Sushi - Episode 35

Mikuni Sushi just unleashed its new gluten-free menu, so we had to visit and try things out. While they made a nice first attempt, we found that we've had better luck making other rolls of their gluten-free with slight modifications. For the sushi aficionado, this would be a bland experience. To gluten-free people who have been dying for sushi, consider this place your resource if you're ever in the Sacramento area.

Pacific Catch (San Francisco, CA) - Episode 31

After swimming the seas of Golden Gate Park for the day, we sniffed out the bait and got hooked on the line of the Pacific Catch restaurant in San Francisco, CA. On the corner of 9th Avenue and Lincon Way, they served up some shrimp ceviche, a sake sake roll, and two Chalkboard Specials: one with shrimp served California Grill Style, and one with salmon served Baja BBQ Style. Will they reel us in, or will they let these two fish get away?!
