The Cat's Whiskers

Another day another lion cub...well I suppose they are quite appealing to look at and I'm guessing no-one minds.

This little cub was about 5 months old - large enough to start growing just the initial tuft of a mane that lions start to first pick up around this age. I love his expression in this shot - like he's spotted something that is going to keep him entertained all day.

Taken near Hartbeespoort, Northwest Province, South Africa.
