Hungry lioness and her cubs rip the limbs from a buffalo for dinner

A hungry lioness and her cubs were snapped ripping the limbs from a buffalo after it is brought home for their dinner.
Stephen Kangisser captured the pack tucking into the feast while taking photographs on the Kruger National Park in South Africa.And an adorable cub - which looks just like Disney's doe-eyed Simba from the Lion King - was photographed tenderly cradling its mother's face and staring into her eyes with admiration after the pride were seen devouring a buffalo.

An adorable cub is snapped holding onto his mother's face as if to say 'thank you' for the buffalo
Stephen, 63, from Johannesburg, is particularly proud of the heartwarming snap.He said: 'The photograph is a really cute one. 'The lions were relaxing after eating a buffalo.'I was around 50 metres away and I was clicking away on my camera. 

'The lions had killed the buffalo the day before and they were still eating it. It wasn't a pretty sight, but that is just nature.'We were there for quite a few hours and I was taking lots of photographs. The adult lions were relaxing and the cubs were playing together.'He added: 'I managed to take the photograph of the cub affectionately holding onto its mother's face. It was very cute. 'I have never seen a lion show such affection before, it was like he was thanking her for bringing the buffalo to the pride.'
