Could 40 midgets defeat a lion?

[Munkymagic]

Last year an Australian girl was nearly killed necause her hair was mistaken for a lion's mane when she visited the lions while on holiday in Africa. The lion grabbed her from behind and just wanted to play with her - not even trying to attack her, was not angry or aggitated or exerting itself but in a split second did SERIOUS damage.

I'd vote against the midgets and probably even 40 adult humans surviving without any weapons or tools but if they have a rope or some basic tools even if they are not traditional weapons i think they might make it through. Definately not all of them but a few.

Thats crazy. 40 adult humans would result in a serious Lion massacre. Fighting for their lives?

It would be over within 3 minutes.
