Lovely father/son moments (if it is not a girl lol ). The males never teach the cubs anything while playing, like the mothers do. Female stuff ;-) Very nice pics ^Q^ ^Q^ ^Q^

I am so glad everyone is enjoying the Lion pictures. We certainly were not oblivious to how special this sighting was at the time. The two Lionesses had been hanging out in that area with their cubs for weeks prior, but never with the males present as far as I was aware. I guess we just hit the jackpot this day!

One of the 'aunties' was being a bit of a floosie and tried to get some interest from a male.

The second male thought he was going to miss out so quickly cut in.

But he just stood there for a minute, then turned and went back to bed. 0*\ 0-
