The Spanish police got a number of calls, which reported a sighting of a lion that was roaming freely in a nearby area.
Officers with the Molina de Segura police, a small town in Spain, were dispatched to track down the lion after they received a number of calls.
However, upon investigating, they found out that the lion the residents were talking about was, in fact, a massive dog.
In a post that was made by the police station on social media, the residents of the town had multiple sightings of the animal.
When they tracked down the “lion”, they found out that they were actually dealing with a dog that looked like a massive lion.
After capturing the dog, the police reunited the pooch with its original owner.
The police shared a picture of the dog on social media, where you can see that the dog does resemble quite a lot with a lion.
The tail of the dog had been trimmed and had a lion-like fur on its head.
The Molina de Segura police confirmed that their officer managed to find the home of the dog, but it was not clear why the dog had been given that type of haircut.
The spokesperson of the Molina de Segura police said, “We’re investigating and waiting for some results.”
The spokesperson added, “We don’t know the motive for shaving it that way. For now, there’s no justifiable motive. We have to confirm the vaccines and documents are correct, but fortunately, the dog is fine.”
I mean if I saw that dog roaming around I would think the same thing.
