~Exit, pursued by a lion~

After many attempts to wake its father from a deep morning slumber, this little cub got more than it bargained for. A quick exit was conducted!

RE: The Birmingham Males - Herekitty - 10-20-2018

Excerpt from Londolozi Blog - Week in Pictures - by James Tyrrell, 19, October, 2018.
This Birmingham male had been mating with the Tsalala female close to the Londolozi camps. When male lions want to assess the reproductive status of a lioness, they analyze pheromones in her urine by use of their vomeronasal or Jacobson’s organ. Immediately after testing the scent of the Tsalala female, the Birmingham male began walking away, heading back towards the rest of his coalition. This most likely indicated that the female was not – or was simply no longer – in oestrus.
