Male lion father giving affection to cub with lioness mother relaxing next to them.

This was a really cool thing to see especially since it is really rare to see. The father male lion was sitting near his cub until the mother lioness showed up. She gave an affection rub to the male and then decided to lie down next to him at which point, the cub got up to give affection to his father who reciprocated. This was a FANTASTIC vacation in both Kenya and Tanzania. I have several spectacular videos which include a huge troupe of baboons, elephants, arial video of a herd (Tower) of giraffes, etc.
