What a brilliant story Chui, thanks for putting it up. We go on about males like Notch, Romeo, and Clawed, but for shear bravery when it comes down to it, a Lioness protecting her Cubs, and family takes some beating

Oh my, what an incredible story and an amzing sequence of photo's. That really is one brave Lioness, she managed to get her little cubs and the Juvenille males across all safely, she is one heck of a mum Like a Star @ heaven She was lucky to get away with a cut to her mouth, she could have died in that river......thank heavens she didn't. A mum in a million.
Thanks so much for the link Chui.

I saw this article too. What luck to be in the right place at the right time to get the pics! That's one croc that should think twice before messing with a mother lioness!
