I think the photographer is just as adorable as the lion cubs in how genuinely excited and pleased he is to discover the babies.

@@rorirory121 look....I dont really give damn, where your from. Animals are animals, if their scared, angry, hungry... they are going to let you know. How? They attack, it's not their fault, it's the way nature is. I'm not going to argue on here with you, because your from Africa and you think you know it all. Frankly I dont give two shits; I've taken classes on wildlife, but I know I dont know everything, what I stated before is what those classes has taught me. If it is wrong then, I guess college level classes are wrong. Also, their is nothing wrong with tourism, as long as they don't interfere or harm these animals and their habitats, then I dont see the same way you do. It's meant to be educational, to learn more about them. As long as its doesnt hurt them, why stop a good thing. Now, people dipping into a untouched oasis, that should stop, that's harmful. People leave trash, and all their what nots, that's harmful, that's ruining habitats. Looking at lions from a distance, and then leaving them alone is not.

I smiled when I heard the first cub go “Ack”. They make the sweetest noises.

Loving lions and their cubs means giving them space to live a wild free life in the their own habitat ❤️ Humans, don't hunt them, don't trade their bones, don't encroach their space. Just left them be themselves 🙏
Brings tears to my eyes everytime I watch this clip. Sweet little cubs.💕🦁💕
Absolutely beautiful! Lioness are such powerful, caring, beautiful and witty animals! Their bonds with their pride are so powerful and even just a slight movement of their body can mean so much, such extraordinary animals. And to think they have been threatened by poachers sickens me, at least they are coming back and are beating the poachers, to all those people that help you are such a saviour to them!! Have a great day

In India villagers don't complain if lions hunt their cattles because they know those lions are endangered species.
Lion cubs are the most beautiful creatures on earth.
It's absolutely beautiful how a lioness sneaks off alone, has her cubs all to herself for a little hit and then takes them home to meet the crew.
These cubs are so cute! And the momma lioness is so beautiful and a good momma
I love the man's enthusiasm as he tells us about the lioness and her babies. I share his love of nature.
