PRETORIA, South Africa, March 5 (UPI) -- A family taking video at a South African safari park learned a lesson about locking their doors when a female lion used her mouth to open their car door.

Joshua Sutherland, who posted the video to YouTube, said his sisters were visiting their parents while they were serving as missionaries in South Africa when they stopped at the safari park for the "experience of a lifetime."

The video shows a group of female lions hanging out near the family's car before one of the lionesses approaches the vehicle and quickly opens a door with her mouth.

"You were supposed to lock the door," a voice shouts in the video.

The video was posted YouTube in March 2014, but only went viral this week after being posted on Reddit.
