A lioness swatted at violinist Kyle Dillingham from behind glass as he played.

A female lion at the Oklahoma City Zoo and Botanical Garden was not impressed by the antics of violinist Kyle Dillingham.

As the entertainer hammed it up for zoo patrons by running up and down in front of the lion enclosure, one lioness gave chase, swatting at the glass separating her from the humans watching her.

While Dillingham sang and played, the lioness tried to eat his head, much to the delight of visitors who laughed and took photos and video with their cellphones.
