Feeding jungle animals

In the car today, during our marathon errand-running trip, I gave Erilyn some beef jerky as a snack.  The following conversation ensued:

E--Is this what lions eat?
S--Something like that, yes.
E--Well, next time I go to the jungle, I want to feed this to the lions.  It's so yummy.
S--Yes, beef jerky is very yummy.
E--They'll probably lick me.
S--Probably.  You're pretty yummy, too.

I didn't have the heart to tell her that lions don't live in the jungle.

She'll learn soon enough.
