Scott Baldwin (born 12 July 1988) is a Welsh international rugby union player. He played as a hooker for the Ospreys and joined Harlequins prior to the 2019/2020 season. In May 2013, Baldwin was selected in the Wales national rugby union team 32-man training squad for the summer 2013 tour to Japan.[1] He made his international debut in the 2nd test versus Japan on 15 June 2013, as a second-half replacement. In the 2015 Six Nations Championship, Baldwin cemented his place as Wales's first choice hooker and made many pundits' team of the tournament.[citation needed]
Lion incident
Prior to an Ospreys rugby union match against Cheetahs in September 2017, Baldwin was bitten on the hand by a captive lion at Weltevrede Game Lodge near Bloemfontein, South Africa.[2][3] Ospreys coach Steve Tandy described Baldwin's conduct as "pretty stupid", and added "I don't know what sort of wildlife show Scott has been watching where you can pat a lion on the head as if it's a kitten."[4] The resulting outcome was that he missed the Pro14 fixture against a team of cheetahs.[3]
