This somewhat satirical cartoon is a blatantly obvious tourism spoof which invites the viewer to come to Kenya for lions and tigers (tigers don't live in Kenya by the way) Originally posted on weebls stuff with the humble caption "Come and visit sunny Kenya," This loop is created by the same author as Weebl and Bob and Badger Badger Badger : Jonti Picking.
