So adorable, especially when they growl and mewl! Sorry that two didn't make it, but you're doing a great job for these cats!

So glad at least 2 eventually did make it!! And they are a couple of fiesty wee ones!!! 💕💕💕

I'm so sad for the 2 little ones who didn't make it, but so glad that you decided in time to intervene to save the remaining 2 AND mom. Hope you can reunite them later. ❤🦁

So exciting….❣️

I feel badly about the two babies that did not make it. But, I very happy that at least the two surviving babies are doing well. They could not be more precious.

The power and beauty of Almighty Mother Nature...

Should’ve put them back with mama right away. That’s where they belong. She was doing fine & the two cubs were fine just a little small, but with mama’s milk they would’ve grown quickly. I work at Kruger game reserve in South Africa & the cubs do fine once they’re with mama. That’s where they should be, cuddling with mom not in some humans arms… so you can show them off to the public later & profit off of it? Our lions & lionesses live happily & healthily in their own FREE environment with miles of their own land but they’re still monitored to make sure they’re doing well. Bring them here & they’ll thrive, but still be monitored. We have big game reserved for the lions benefit, we could easily stick them in enclosures if we wanted to make lots of money & publicity from showing them off but we only care about the animals well-being.

Adorable 🥰. If you hadn’t intervened, they might have all died. Thank you all👏🏻👍🏻

Semoga semua singa singa sehat

Is a decision to remove them in the formative period instead of bonding, interfering with nature? A lioness needs help birthing and you take HER offspring away? Please rethink this.

This zoo always chooses this. Makes money showing videos.

That’s an odd looking cub different from the cubs i have seen in youtube

[@Tempusverum]

it's a newborn. Newborns of any species look a little funny

I don't appreciate wild animals being put in zoos and keeping them there
