PUZZLE 156 In Plain Sight 2

You're out on the plains.
Suddenly, you notice that you're surrounded by three lions.
They already have their eyes on you.
However, for some reason, they won't attack if two or more of them are the same distance away from their prey.
You need to use this to your advantage so that you can make your escape.
Find a route to the exit, moving one space at a time vertically, horizontally or diagonally.

Hint 1

You don't need to worry about all three lions at the same time.
Focus on two lions at a time and find your way to safety.

Hint 2

The route downwards, distancing yourself from the lions, looks risky.
It might actually be better to go up, towards the beasts.

Hint 3

To start with, focus on the lion at the bottom and the lion on the right.
Make a run for it straight between them!

Super Hint

Continuing on from hint three...
Now you're surrounded by all three lions, focus on the one at the top and the on on the right as you head for the exit.
Take the shortest route now and run like the wind!
