I'll give it a try:
Hiram and Elizabeth, the legendary lion whisperers, had spent decades on the savannah living, sleeping, and socializing with the king of the beasts. Many a lion had benefited from their wise tutelage, their loving care, their strict routines, and were fully trained as service animals to the unfortunate in the neighboring villages. On a quick visit to Mboso, the capital city, the pair tried to connect with several of their former lions and their new masters. It quickly became apparent that all was not right with their lion friends. They milled around their masters, bared fangs, let out giant coughs, and generally let their displeasure be known by the flip of their tails as they gazed up at Hiram and Elizabeth. Hiram tried to soothe the savage beasts by flipping treats to them, but after several haunches of gazelle were quickly fought over and devoured, Elizabeth piped in--We need to figure out how to KEEP from agitating them further, are you crazy?
