Older lion cub

As if that wasn’t enough the morning drive wasn’t over. We left the dogs to their slumber and made our way back to where we’d seen the lions the day before. We didn’t make it that far though as a different lioness had been spotted with three older cubs, estimated around one year old. Erindi has a policy of only two jeeps per sighting which is very welcome. I’ve heard horror stories in more well know national parks in places like Kenya where there can be up to 20 or 30 jeeps all crammed together. We waited our turn to approach these lions and patience was rewarded with the three cubs receiving a bath from their mum in the shade of a tree. The interaction between them all was brilliant to watch. Not long after this they decided to get on the move again, which alerted us to yet another lioness, this time with two young cubs resting in the shade of some scrubland.
