Is Casper The White Lion A Dad Of Three Cubs Spotted Recently?

UPDATE: 22 January 2022 - The pregnant Lioness was spotted with three beautiful tiny cubs on the H1-3 close to the N'wanetsi River just south of Satara Rest-camp in Kruger National Park!

Watch Casper the White Lion leaving his Brothers, sleeping in the road, and went down to the N'wanetsi River looking for a pregnant Lioness to see if the cubs were born yet.
#CasperTheWhiteLion
Once a lioness realizes she’s going into labor, she’ll sneak away from the pride and hide herself in a secret lair, where she’ll give birth to a litter of 2 to 6 cubs and stay with them for around three months.
Why all the secrecy? It’s simple: survival.
The odds are already stacked against a female lion bringing a cub to term!
Part of that is just the harshness of life in the wild; many lion cubs starve, both in infancy and beyond. A female lion has only four teats, so litters larger than four generally won’t all survive. And once cubs have returned to the pride, when food is scarce, they often go unfed, meaning they regularly starve. That explains part of the reason lions go into hiding when giving birth; lionesses will allow any cub in the pride to suckle (they group-mother the cubs), and older cubs are as hungry for mother’s milk as brand-new-babies. If she stayed with the pride to give birth, a lioness’s milk would likely never make it to her own young.
Another major killer of lion cubs is even crueler than starvation: it’s other lions.
(Pregnancies last just three and a half months, and female lions can go into estrus 'a period of fertility' at any time of the year)

Even if the cubs aren't Casper's, it's still exciting to see the perpetuation of the pride. And from what you described, it's not easy for a lioness to bring cubs to adulthood. But I'll sure be hoping these cubs survive and thrive.

[@falanajerido875]

No we want it to be his

[@Pawsandtales321]

I hope Casper and brothers have many offspring that make it to adulthood.

[@jenniferann6956]

Casper is so beautiful! 😍❤️ I hope if they were his cubs, he found them! And I hope they all stay safe and sound! 🙏❤️🦁❤️

[@alclavz8736]

Very interesting, I always monitor the next episode of casper and this lioness

[@user-ks5ub6nm1d]

Thanks for the update Today you have some interesting news. I hope the cubs live. Is there a chance that the cubs will carry the Casper genes in white? I also hope that Casper will return to his brothers, being alone from his brothers is dangerous for him

[@falanajerido875]

I pray there are his i want cubs out of him i am excited God bless Casper

[@jenniferross8793]

Waking up and seeing Casper first thing in the morning is always a joy. I'm very excited about news of beautiful cubbies. Is the lioness in this video the same one that Casper was seen mating with for days while his brothers were calling him, the one that he loves? This gorgeous girl is looking very good and full of milk and I am on pins and needles waiting to see the bundles of joy. I know that Casper and his brothers are going to be awesome protectors of these cubs because of how protective they are of each other. It would be amazing to see white cubs, fingers crossed. Is it good to have the car lights shining on Casper while he's walking or as long as they are on low beam does it not interfere with him in any capacity?

[@vivianmcconnell452]

Some times we need lone time, even lions 🦁

[@katkilr3975]

I seem like I read somewhere that a white loin/lioness still has a low percentage chance of have a white of spring. I don't remember what it percentage was but it was pretty low. There should be another litter already born just not seen yet. Has their dads seen them yet?

[@akshatparag2884]

Which pride do they controling now??Are they controling the same pride that Nsemani coalition controls??

[@kkg108]

no

[@akshatparag2884]

I thing they must be offspring of either mwefthu Or casanova. I think mwefthu is on the top in this coalition hierarchy and casanova is his deputy. Casper not regularly seen mating with the girls

[@daysipaz8312]

Casper has been seen mating in recent months. All 4 brothers have mated, so there is no way to say precisely which is the father.

[@TigerTigz.]

Hello Casper.

[@vinta9202]

What is he looking for? Nobody.He likes to be alone.

[@Jesus.loves.you.123]
