That male lion is called a sir
Wow this girl is so active, does she attend a gym or something?????❤
Do the African and Asiatic lions in your care ever interact with each other? If so, I'm very curious to see how they fare together
Great work all of you
So sweet. He’s so sweet
Imara is such a Tease…. swipes her scented behind in his face then when he goes for a whiff, ???? ????????????right in the face ???? ????
Very interesting to see these wonderful lions interacting. Good commentary as well.
Looks like she is claiming his territory ???? poor guy has lost his house
So happy that kasanga and imara are together now!!!
I thought the video was so well done, showing and explaining socialising procedure clearly, but also moving swiftly through progression . Also, explaining safety precautions. So interesting. Thank you .
????????
He seems a little shy! She has exposed her belly to him and wants to be near him, although chasing him around the enclosure is kind of embarrassing for him. She is learning what he is good with. They both want each other’s company because that’s how they are designed
to exist. Cats can only sleep ???? when they feel safe and these two are very happy to be sleeping with each other.
They seem to have bonded, he does love the way her butt smells and she has to accept that about him, but they seem to have accepted each other.
Wonderful video. Just two big pussy cats getting to know each other. Thanks.
Okay in the 3rd session, that had me laughing! You could almost hear the wheels turning in his head, deciding if he wanted to risk another swipe by sitting too close to a possibly pissed off female haha. The hesitant paw, the nervous side eye ???? Love seeing this behind the scenes stuff that only you guys are privilege to!
What a beautiful couple ♡♡
The lioness is really not happy
What's the Lionesses name, and is she white or pale?
????????
Forever grateful that u peeps try ur darndest at trying to understand how these beautiful creatures function naturally.
Oh that was so wonderful to see – here's hoping that they continue to make progress & that it all works out positively for them.
Beautiful kitties.
Wonderful footage of interactions between these two! I’m glad they have taken to each other. Thank you for the work you do. ????????????????
Kasanga has a girlfriend!! So happy for them both – Kasanga is a true gentlecat
I really don't want or need to see lions mating. Thank you, no.
Thanks you for sharing this video. Millions upon millions of us have no idea how your organizations work. The lions look healthy, beautiful as if 15:44 they were in their natural environment because of your care. Still heartbreaking all animal/species are endangered for one reason or another today.
Go on lions cure my boredom …
