Description This little fella is probably the cutest carnivore in Africa

Interesting facts about lions

Lions usually confront rain simply by curling up and waiting for it to pass. After a prolonged period of hot weather, rain may stimulate lions to initiate vigorous bouts of allo-grooming, in which each lion grooms another and no doubt receives a drink at the same time.

Yeah I bet! If he keeps that charm he wont need to hunt for food when I visit. I will give him my leg and maybe a ear to as dessert
