Safari guide spottedĀ lion cubs playing on the Big Marsh in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The Ndutu plains have been experiencing good rains for the past few weeks.
With thousands of wildebeest of baby wildebeest running around, it is much easier for a mother lion, cheetah or leopard to find a meal for the hungry cubs as well as give them the opportunity to learn how to hunt for themselves by practicingĀ on young calves before they have to go out and fend for themselves! Young cubsĀ learn valuable lessons during this time which is crucial to their success.
