Unlikely duo Steven Seagal and George Galloway made a bizarre trip to a zoo in Dubai where they visited an array of exotic animals.

The Hollywood actor, 71, and the Scottish politician, 69, posed for a series of photographs during their visit in the UAE earlier this month.

They were the guests of billionaire Dr. Saif Belhasa, who owns private zoo Fame Park and invited the two famous faces to explore his compound. 

Inside the zoo, Steven and George met the menagerie of animals, including a huge python, which three of them proudly held up to the camera.

The two men also had a game of tug of war with a liger [a lion and tiger cross], who could be seen gripping onto a rope with his teeth.

Elsewhere during their visit they encountered a huge bear, who appeared to happily feed out of Steven’s hand. 

Steven did not appear alarmed by the bear’s presence and flashed a beaming smile while stood mere feet away from the creature.

The Under Siege star appeared every inch the animal lover as he cuddled up to a sloth, who had wrapped its arms around Steven’s neck.

He later fed a lion with a bottle of milk while inside the enclosure with her.

George was joined by his wife Putri Gayatri Pertiw on the visit and they were picture hanging out with the monkeys, including one who perched on her knee.

The appearance comes soon after Jean-Claude Van Damme weighed in on his famous feud with Steven in the 1990s in an interview with MailOnline.

Both actors were considered two of the best action heroes of the golden age of martial arts in Hollywood movies at the time, which led to a level of competitiveness and public sparring.

When Jean-Claude heard Seagal belittling him in interviews, he is said to have challenged him to ‘meet him outside’ at a party at Sylvester Stallone’s Miami home in 1991 – but Steven refused to take him up on his offer.

Jean-Claude spoke about the situation with MailOnline from his hotel room in Hong Kong and said: ‘If Steven doesn’t like me, that’s OK. If someone like Beethovan or Einstein didn’t like me, maybe that would concern me.

‘But Seagal, I don’t mind him not liking me. I really don’t mind. I don’t think there’s any sort of problem.’

George has stood in elections across the past five decades and his last bid saw him fail to get elected to the Scottish Parliament in 2021.

Outside of his political career, he has worked in media, hosting radio talk shows and TV programmes.

He has become infamous for his time on Celebrity Big Brother, when horrified viewers watched him pretend to be a cat with Rula Lenska.
