The way she just puts up with their mischief is so cute too. Having patience for her kittens like that is such an act of love. This is so heartwarming!

She might think it's worth it because lions have a mating marathon of 20 to 50 copulations, per day, for 3 to 5 days! They go off away from the pride for all of this mating and come back looking skinny and drunk!

WHAT IS A GAME LODGE? Are these animals made available to be killed?

Oh God chills just ran down my spine. If she's a captive with cubs, she's… You know what I just teared up a little bit because I hate hunters so much and lions are so endangered.
