Boredom And Frustration
Out of boredom and annoyance because of how he was treated and how he had been made to live, Kahn, the lion, chewed his tail. The tip of his rear had swollen completely. If he hadn’t been saved in time, he would have fallen ill and died. He thought he had a bone disorder as well, which made it hard for him to walk. Keahey explained, “When Kahn arrived, his tail end was completely chewed off, and[ he] was skinny.”
