[@GabsARV]

Them eyes! I can't resist! They're so precious!

[@emperor68188]

0:24. The sounds that they make. SO CUTE.

[@Hebzzz]

THIS!!

[@charlesHC]

Too cute. I used to volunteer at a local zoo, and they had a lot of these little guys(2 or 4, still quite a bit). They were being bottle fed, but they were just far too adorable.

[@BabePandahh]

those eyes... you cant say no to those eyes ...

[@whitedragon7]

That one at the beginning had me at the first meow and half-roar. So cute!

[@JimCorrigan777]

It looks like they take really good care of these guys. That's always great to see.

[@Rynne_1]

Why are they so cute!?! I really hope that one day I could volunteer for a program like this >

[@mizzphitzbeta]

Those eyes are gorgeous! They're so cute ❤️

[@Hebzzz]

[@PenguinDT]

Those eyes! They melt my soul! :D

[@JTGoran]

[@Ikillurmomify]

They're so freaking cute

[@lilym7128]

Being a baby animal expert is the cutest job in the world!

[@Pilkie101]

They are so cute, especially their big eyes.

[@d15craxx]

You can never ever get tired of watching Lio Cubs

[@fionayamamoto]

sad to see these beautiful animals cooped up in such a grim hole :(

[@KUPHSER]

imagine they stayed that size for ever

[@oliviamantsch1141]

It's so sad that these baby lions have to be inside with fluorescent lights and concrete floors.

[@laney8612]

0:39 those are some beautiful eyes

[@IndividualLives]

my favourite show on the internet

[@SabbyNeko]

"Part 1 of 1" Someone called the Redundancy Department of Redundancy.

[@medexamtoolsdotcom]

Can I be the redundant president of redundancy in charge of redundant redundancy in the redundancy department of redundancy?

[@jeff050578]

Lionesses do NOT kill their cubs. They rarely kill cubs that do not belong to them. Male lions do not even kill their own cubs. When a male lion or group of male lions take over a pride they will kill all the existing cubs. They do it to remove the former pride leaders offspring because he knows they will grow up and become a threat. Male lions will also kill cubs when thy are in their nomadic stage. They do it for the same reason. It reduces the chances of future threats. They only kill them. They do not eat them. The guy in the video is WRONG. He has to know better so he is lying and being disingenuous.I suspect they are doing it because they want to play with lion cubs all day. Maybe because they never plan on returning it to the wild so they want to domestic it as early as possible and having them around humans at a young age is a good way of doing that. Either way, it is selfish. Why rob the mother her first year with her cubs . She is caged up already so why take that from her too? I know the sounds a lioness and a cub make when they are apart and trying to locate each other. I bet they made it for days after this people separated them for their selfish reasons.

[@marcusrosa2321]

but...i just looked up like 8 sites that all say they do though. n he says that not all of them do and it foesnt happen alot anyways . its done 2 prevent it from happening at all. its done to prevent problems.

[@Shoegazebasedgenre0.]

if i was a lion...i would have stay there and yells "aww hell no!!" when he returned me to my twisted mother

[@nixonjackson7487]

male lions sometimes kill there own cubs

[@ferox965]

Saw lionesses on the Kruger national park channel killing and eating cubs.

[@Alzorthegreat]

oh my goooooooooooooooooooood look at theeeeeeeeem :D

[@KatDekay]

Looks like a damn awful place for wild animals like lions to grow up in... I can't even concentrate on how cute those poor lions are. What the fuck

[@jacktucker5083]

It looks like they get alot of love and care though.

[@nixonjackson7487]

bruh the people feed them and take care of them

[@nixonjackson7487]

+Jack Tucker that's right other people just don't understand

[@Spartan76092]

It's so fluffy I'm gonna die!

[@Iciebleu]

OMG. I LOVE THE NOISES. >.

[@fslayer1290]

AWWWW! Wook at those wittle faces!!!!

[@tweakzGFX]

SOOOOOOOOOO CUTE :D

[@Goofy_Ahh_Maine_Coon]

0:23 awww

[@TheFactsX]

Their eyes are so big and cute! AWWWWWWWWW

[@Pilkie101]

They have such funny little round bellies when he picks them up hahaha

[@zigovat]

Baby animal expert....he must have a very high tolerance to cuteness.

[@Yomamasahox1]

To all you tree huggers... near the start where the male zoo keeper talks 0:34 : he said they will act on as a role to raise the "young ones" and "return" them. Meaning they will release the cubs when they are mature enough to be released to the wild. I could have translated far better but they probably had to edit out some parts to keep pace to the recording. so chill they'll get to fish hunt and learn to survie in the wild .

[@trifio5242]

THEY ARE SO FLUFFY!!!!!!

[@susannexsuju]

Omg. They are so cute . they have the biggest eyes i ever saw

[@2hemispheres2]

[@ajtronic]

[@Mrosky97]

[@tlsar]

[@eelijjahh]

[@eag0310]

Theyre adorable!

[@partykrew666]

omg that was the most adawwwwwrable thing everrrrrr.

[@mercellibatan1049]

The first time i saw it they are so cute i want to hug them

[@SteelBadger13]

my heart just exploded

[@chevon1920]

OMG this is just too much cuteness, I cant take it. I'm just sad they were taken away from their mother. I wouldnt think infanticide is THAT common.

[@badaripandarinath4529]

I have NEVER heard of a mother killing her cubs. Maternal instinct is universal and powerful. This man doesn't know what he's talking about

[@quisy1993]

Hamsters perfect example, if the mother gets distressed she eats her babies. Some animal parents especially feline and even more so on the lone hunters (cheetas, leopards etc) they can sometimes be aggressive to their cubs when they feel they could threaten their own life quality. You my friend, don't know what you're talking about c;

[@thomasalvarez6456]

Actually some mother do get annoyed or they sit accidentally kill their young it is very sad :(

[@katherineuribe2952]

It's a sad reality, but lions sometimes kill their babies i.e. the runts or if their milk runs dry. Or they simply reject them for reasons we don't understand. It is my observation, however, that animals can be stressed living in captivity and are more prone to reject their young. The balance is that they get proper feeding and medical care in captivity and they don't have to worry about predators eating their young.

[@SabbyNeko]

Katherine Uribe There's also the fact that any good zoo or sanctuary only takes animals who missed out on their learning years and can't survive on their own. Some will take poached animals, sadly... but we try and stamp that shit out. Basically, when you go to a zoo, that lion is there because if it wasn't, it would be dead.

[@katherineuribe2952]

SabbyNeko Going to a zoo is a mixed bag...the animals get medical treatment, are safe from predators, etc. But it's not the ideal situation. The best would be if they had their habitats back, if people wouldn't hunt them, and if we'd quit messing up the earth. There are no easy solutions.

[@HudaSukor]

IT'S SO FLUFFY I'M GONNA DIEEE!!

[@shadow.banned]

The Cute Show "YAYYY! *kids cheering*

[@derekb.9177]

Super funny and cute the small Lion cubs. Unbelieveable. The big problem comes when the cubs get tested how they will react on the pride and how the pride will react on the cubs. They're even still babys with arms like Rambo. Look closer. They got everything the easiest way and the most will say that they can't life in the wild because they lived an easy way. But at the end the oposite will be the result when such strong cubs don't get what they want. Aggressions with POWER.

[@wuuspigs]

Best job ever.

[@colecoopermma]

vice you have forever changed

[@lindseyjeby]

OMG! This is so cute!

[@Dawsenconway]

Everyone can now die a better person for seeing this.

[@gellygurls6827]

And whats so amazing about all this is those lions cubs will remember him years to come ppl think animals are dumb in stupid when in fact they are as smart as a human if you raise lions from cubs to adults and treat them with respect that will never forget that and truth be told lions are probably about the only lions that will let you film them just as long as you stay a within a safe distance!

[@brendanbramman]

I just found out that lion cubs are the cutest animals ever. I just want to hug the shit out of them.

[@Summzy420]

beautiful creatures

[@RealWomenRealStories]

Let them out!

[@elfinsocks]

made my night

[@cindysidarta6682]

SO CUTEE >,< I WANT ONE

[@Diabola_Innocens]

[@marcusrosa2321]

+Diabola Innocens dude stfu why cant you just let the fact that someone wants something as cyte as that go? damn your part of peta i bet. lol dumb ass internet fools. i want one cause there cute afand i can probably let it free in the future before it hits adult age ,probably in a good zoo or those training places for animals to be free n stuff.

[@xoxoangelindisguise]

Adorable!!

[@Jonrulesistaken]

Remember: little lions and alligators may sound like good pets, but they grow up.

[@FoxyWhispersASMR]

Simba looks confused lol

[@RiTu1337]

The best job ever.

[@nielsb90]

Those lions were cute..

[@MG30001]

i like the realistic floor and walls. looks like real concrete.

[@peterbachtiar4185]

Lioness never kill their cub !

[@Danboy535]

"Baby Animal Expert" wow sounds like an awesome job

[@ThaHeshLife]

Best. Job. EVER.

[@AlexMau5]

They're so cute :3

[@CaptainSchlockler]

That's some cute kids there

[@MegaLadysman1234]

Simbas! Simbas everywhere!

[@killio88]

That has to be the best job in the world!

[@jahman209]

Nice flag, great symbol of friendship between the two countries.

[@emendeavors8486]

every time he lifted a lion I sang the lion king theme song

[@megabyte7047]

Where did they get the idea that mothers kill their cubs?? Need some education.

[@justacinnamonrollqwerty6434]

Prone means, it can happen, but not always, but just in case, they remove the cubs from the mother.

[@allaurely47]

It only happens if the babies have a handicap and the mother judges they're not healthy enough to live. Most of the time they're completely safe. IMO it's dumb to separate a mother from her youngs, as she will be desperately searching for them in a panic for hours. This is why I hate zoos

[@medexamtoolsdotcom]

It should be obvious to him that what he's saying is not consistent with the reality in front of him, with them being SO well behaved. He picks them up and they just relax and enjoy being held..... yet he just assumes they're just mindless wild killing machines that'll kill everything within reach.

[@wwfww]

@John Redding stop struggling, once you see, you cannot unsee.

[@shadow.banned]

Ya know... if this didn't have subtitles, you'd swear it almost looked like he's showing us how they trap them, chop them up then feed them to their brothers and sisters. WOULDN'T BE TOO CUTE THEN, HUH!? *rawr*

[@MelKatze]

Those eyes O.O awww

[@SIAVASH5959]

I like this work !

[@27hellome]

Why do you have to be so freaking cute!

[@littleflags]

'baby animal expert'? I've figured out what I want to do with my life.

[@canadapainter658]

those cubs get lot of love from those people...I can tell...

[@ryanocarroll6426]

Named after the four elements, sweet.

[@rd792n]

Really cute thumbnail 😘😘

[@Comp1exChi1d]

Simba!

[@StrallyMan]

all fun and games till that cub makes u its dinner

[@909raiden]

Omg so cute!

[@karowashere]

this is so cute i exploded.

[@UsagiDrops7]

Those cubs won't grow to be aggressive if they keep them in this environment. And look at house cats! They are born with the same instincts. People don't realise that a lot of animals are aggressive because we make them. It's the same as a human child! But these cubs are so adorable! :3

[@Splengebab]

Lion cubs are fun to curb stomp

[@BozzmusikAZAD]

I love your dogs.

[@Thekmamc]

I thought that the dad was the one that they had to stay away from until they were older? they look pretty cute haha

[@alfamonk]

Mmm...lovely natural concrete environment.

[@mettalx1]

OMG adorable ;.;!

[@TheScrewed0ver]

TOO CUTE

[@amanoharan33]

Awwww! That is ever so cute! Everybody knows that they can't save all thelion cubs, just thinking about how the mother eats them makes my cry little. I wish I can have them as a pet, so I can teach them to be friendly, but that is not their nature. Sigh.
