Description: This curious cub stealthily approached our vehicle few meters away and with innocent gaze leant on a fallen tree.

Story from behind the lens: Just before sunset, on our way back to the camp, we came across the Oldikidiki Pride. They were fifteen in number: five females, eight cubs and two males. One of the black face lioness was playing with some of the cubs, when a curious cub stealthily approached our vehicle few meters away and with innocent gaze leant on a fallen tree, while mother and siblings where watching closeby. Attentive and visibly sleepy he ended up falling asleep on the tree trunk.
