A busy guy!

At the moment Thanda’s dominant male Lion is a very busy guy. Besides making sure that he gets enough to eat (which means being at “home” with the ladies when they caught something large) he patrols his territory and keeps any unwanted male away from his pride. With six young cubs he and the mothers must be on constant guard for any threats to the young ones. And just when he thinks he has got a moment to rest the youngster start playing not so much with him, but on top of him. A busy time!
