Description
A lion cub belonging to a private keeper. I was lucky to be able to visit them in their enclosure while they were still this little so I could actually pet them and take close shots like this (the whole photo group then unanimously decided we're having spare ribs for dinner).
They are mature lions now and while I technically can still visit them directly, I think I'll pass on the opportunity. I'm afraid their games would have worse consequences then torn pants or chase after photo backpack nowadays.
