This adorable lion cub helped its mom call for the rest of its family. See how all of the playful siblings appear from the bus, one by one, and enjoy a heartwarming reunion!
How it Happened
Sometimes, even when you’ve spent countless hours in the bush, the most wonderful sightings can come when you least expect them. For Hayley Myburgh, a professional safari guide, this was certainly one of those moments!
“Instead of heading home after our drives, we spontaneously decided to spend the evening at one of the camps inside the park. It was nothing more than a nudge to stay, but it led to one of the most heartwarming sightings we’d ever had.”
With no idea of what the day had in store, Hayley set out at first light and was on the lookout for sightings. “Not long into the drive, we spotted a lioness with seven cubs walking along the sand road.”
Spotting Lion Cubs
Lion cubs make for some of the most special moments in the wild, and seeing seven of them is enough to make anyone’s day! Some of the little ones were a bit on the shy side: “The cubs, all but one, very nervously moved off into the long grass, while the mom and single cub continued.”
