In this particular situation, the cub was very demanding to suckle.. but mom was not obliging...

The Lioness makes a wonderful mother, and along with their care and protection comes the occasional moment of discipline! A lovely intimate view of mother and cub Clement.

Wonderful closeup here Clement, good techs & detail. I'm seeing some blue in the whites of the whiskers however, an easy fix. I've seen a cub that nearly had it's eye taken out with a swipe from mum's paw a few years ago......ouch! :shock:
