From 1969, Bob (Bob McGrath) introduces the kids to a live lion cub. I like how Bob shields the kids from the little guy (with a heavy chain leash around his teeny neck, awww), but treats the cub just like a kitten, petting him and trying to feed him ice cream(!). Really wish someone had wiped the ice cream off, it looks so undignified for the future King of the Jungle.

Another in the semiregular series of animals visiting the Street that I've called "Animal Antics", not an official title, this clip is from Episode 30 (aired December 19, 1969).

Two different segments were shown over the course of an episode with different animals in each. This one also has a Bob visit with a kinkajou (linked below).
