Lion Cubs Playing with Mom and Dad
Season 34
Episode 14
About the Episode
Half a mile from an Indian village, two cow-killing male lions rest in the shade. A lioness approaches with several small cubs. In order to help spread their genes, male lions will often kill cubs that aren't part of their direct bloodline. However, these males begin playing with the cubs, indicating they are probably their fathers.
