======================================
I recently lead a Zali Photo photographic safari to Mala Mala Game Reserve in South Africa and on our second afternoon, 17 July 2021, we found one of the Kambula Pride lionesses and her five cubs, together with the two Birmingham males, Tinyo and Nhenha, resting along the Sand River.
At first they were all very lazy, but as it got later, the lion cubs started moving around more, trying to get milk from mom and pestering dad. Eventually all five of them started playing in the sand, running around and tackling each other... It was an extremely special and entertaining afternoon with them and arguably one of the best lion sightings I've ever had!

Not sure if these are those cubs. Mom jumped up bc she has no milk for the cubs. If she can't eat her body won't produce milk. Sad video.

    This was filmed a short time after he had a 2 v 1 confrontation with the N Avocas. He escaped with an injury to his hind leg and lost some condition afterwards as a result. He has however sprung back and looks massively improved from those scene. Note also: this scene was captured in the eve of another intrusion by the N Avocas which resulted in the death of two of the cubs seen here. These are actually among the last images captured of the five cubs alive together :(

    Hi, I've been following the videos on the Mala-mala reserves among others in Africa, where you film and take pictures. I watch the Lion with a broken leg, and I'm astonished that you're filming and not doing anything to help this lion or the other animals. You cannot do that, explore animal life and be indifferent to its sufferings. You have already invaded their habitat and are already an invasive part of their life. You cannot say “We must not interfere”, you and all tourism have already interfered. Now, for God's sake, at least the animals that you're going to film that need medical care, you should take care of it. Don't you see this lion with the broken leg? How can they be cold and film their suffering? aTT: a viewer. kzread.info/dash/bejne/pqd92tqxgLjciqg.html
