370
00:19:11,918 --> 00:19:13,770
TOLERANCE FOR BIG CATS IS
371
00:19:13,771 --> 00:19:15,622
REMARKABLE.
372
00:19:15,655 --> 00:19:17,440
THE MALDHARIS ARE HINDUS AND
373
00:19:17,441 --> 00:19:19,225
CONSIDER THE LIONS SACRED.
374
00:19:19,259 --> 00:19:21,561

375
00:19:21,562 --> 00:19:23,863
NARASIMHA, A SUPREME GOD.
376
00:19:23,897 --> 00:19:26,666
- EVEN THOUGH LIONS ARE VENTURING
- OUTSIDE THE RESERVE, THE
377
00:19:26,700 --> 00:19:29,069
MALDHARI CONTINUE TO TOLERATE
378
00:19:29,070 --> 00:19:31,438
THEIR DANGEROUS NEIGHBOR.
379
00:19:31,471 --> 00:19:32,856
THE RELATIONSHIP THAT HUMANS
380
00:19:32,857 --> 00:19:34,240

00:19:41,715 --> 00:19:43,800
AND TRUST THAT PEOPLE SHARE WITH
386
00:19:43,801 --> 00:19:45,885
THEIR ANIMAL NEIGHBORS.
